Jayson Lusk, vice president and dean of OSU Agriculture contributes to a research study on how taking a GLP-1 medication can reduce the intake of certain types of foods.

"Only fruits, leafy greens and water showed an overall increase in consumption."

It's a tradeoff. I believe a good one at best. Fruits, leafy greens, and water, are excellent! My blood work is excellent as is many others taking these meds. We, along with the help of this amazing medication, must be doing something right.😊

I just found my selection of high grade pasta from Italy while looking for aluminium foil to keep my steaks warm. Then it came to me. I haven't had pasta with self made pesto since I started my journey on Tirz.

What's would be your answer if I ask you?

FAST FOOD! Used to eat at Whataburger or Taco Bell but now I drive right past and don’t even blink. It’s the weirdest thing not even tempted.

Alcohol!

I miss my deserts and Ice cream, but its the name of the game.

I eat everything I ate before. Only now, a meal that might have been a lunch has become three lunches. And there’s a fourth still left over but I don’t want food poisoning from reheating rice over and over so I throw a portion out.

Post GLP1 ... just no interest, except Dr. Pepper occasionally, can't seem to shake that. Ugh

Same here with pasta! I used to love making creamy mushroom tagliatelle on weekends, but ever since starting sema, the thought of all that richness just makes me queasy.

Occasionally I get the urge for something sweet. Found stevia hard candy on line and just take one and am fine for the rest of the day!

Anything deep fried; just the smell of it repels me.

When i eat "junk" like burgers/fries/tacos--too much of it and i get sick the next day. with that in mind, i am terrified of eating Fried chicken. or fried fish/funnel cakes(it is fair season)

but since being on sema i am on a huge ice cream kick

That was me early on when I hit about 1.5 on sema. I'd see an ad for something like a burger or a a fried chicken sandwich and it would just disgust me.

Now, I just had a burger. Looked just like one from one of those ads. Before GLP's I could have had that, some fries, maybe a small shake. Now I'm at a place where I can have just the burger, and that's a whole meal. Actually a little more than a whole meal, as I'm feeling like I overdid it right now.

Today was actually a really bad day for me nutrition wise, but I'm still only at around 1600 calories. Before GLP's I could hit that by breakfast.

I would say all candy and Ice cream. Have had the same pint in the freezer since I started Reta. And at the store I would always check to see what new type of Reese's they had so I could try it. But none of that, when I crave sweets its like my body wants fruits now, really strange but healthy.

There aren’t too many things I have completely avoided. My biggest change, hands down, is that I no longer overeat. So - I haven’t eaten gluttony. I eat far less sweets and junk food but I don’t consider anything off limits. Generally, I have the power now to eat intuitively and I LOVE IT!!

Same. I think largely because I still do want something sweet many days and ice cream isn't nearly as filling as other desserts. Sometimes even a whole cookie is too much or too sweet. A bite or two of a berry crisp is more than enough.

As I posted elsewhere recently a 4pm protein bar used to be my "healthy" sweet treat many days. Now they are too heavy and often sickly sweet.

Used to love coffee. Now it makes me gag.

Alcohol

I used to just need coffee, now it's like a wonder drug! I feel Grrreeeeat!!

All you can eat chinese food buffet...

3/4 pound steaks are the most I can do at the moment.

Oooh same I was honestly just thinking about this other day but it would be a real waste since one plate isn’t really worth paying for a buffet

 

[chillybilly22]

I can't say I've lost a taste for alcohol although it does taste...different? And the nearly-automatic next round isn't nearly-automatic now.

I always have my coffee black and bitter so fortunately no change needed or wanted there.

I'm actually shocked at the extent of loss of desire for carbs especially bread and bagels. I would pick up a dozen bagels and have them prep one for the ride home 😉

I've done low-carb (Atkins) before and it does - or can - train your system not to crave carbs but any backsliding and you are in trouble both in terms of derailing ketosis and in losing your state of mind.

It's one thing to grasp the mechanisms of GLPs intellectually but quite another to experience them physically and mentally.

Alcohol. Sugar. If anything changed it’s that I now want heavy cream in my coffee.
