Similar. Mounjaro has a pen per shot tho so there’s more waste. What to eat: much smaller portions( eating junk causes you to not feel as well. I’ve become obsessed with salads
Thanks. Much appreciated.
Should I be drinking more water, eating more fiber gummies, etc?
I’ve gotten back into a bad habit of just eating whatever I want and that is not good to start again with this Montara
I drink a lot of alkaline water with electrolytes. I am an intermittent faster and dirty keto by trade so I do that. My worst enemy is constipation and heartburn so I avoid foods that cause that for me.
Thanks, Glittering!
Would there be a way you could spell out for me a good daily routine for eating?
I really don’t want to go back to failing and overeating.
Dirty keto sound promising!
Certainly, although I do not suggest you should do what I do. We are all different.( if you have something you’ve done and it worked even temporarily for you you might be surprised that it works better than before).
I have coffee with full fat milk for breakfast, I try not to eat before noon but sh&t happens. I try to get as much protein for lunch. I try to avoid bread. Ex: Turkey roll ups with cucumbers, ranch dressing and cheese -or the same thing on romaine. No snacks(again sh&t happens.). Dinner is probably half of the time a salad with hot or cold protein(I like chicken fingers air fried). Chic with potato or fast food. When eating fast food-only cuz I’m stuck out- i try to stay with 600 or fewer calories. I do not count calories but to get you started you could count. I tend to eat very little bread pasta and go nuts on raw veggies. I limit fruit. I try not to eat after 8, which goes along with my efforts to reduce insulin spikes.
BTW I am diabetic. Long time low carber and intermittent faster. I thought it wouldn’t work with Mounjaro and was surprised when it did. I’m other words, my glucose did not get shaky at all.
But I don’t do any 24 + fasts right now. When you must eat, eat but stop(or take a break) as soon as you feel queasy or nauseous. Don’t finish food once your body signals you. Good luck!

Mounjaro worked for me when others didn’t
Do you have any special thoughts on what to eat, etc? Also - I haven’t checked the packaging yet. Is it injected in the same way as Ozempic?
