What to Eat When You’re Barely Hungry: Recipes and Tracking for People Taking GLP-1 Medications
Coming soon to Amazon
What should you eat on a GLP-1 medication when you're barely hungry?
On semaglutide, tirzepatide, liraglutide, or dulaglutide, the challenge isn't eating less. It's eating well with very little appetite. This book answers the questions people ask most, with recipes and numbers you can check.
How much protein do I need, and how do I get there with small portions?
Six plain-language principles with their sources: the 2025 consensus of ACLM, ASN, OMA, and The Obesity Society, and the National Academies reference values. 40 of the 60 recipes give you 20 g of protein or more per serving, in portions of about 100 to 400 calories.
What can I eat on nausea days? What about constipation?
Every recipe is tagged for the moment: 17 for nausea days, 24 for constipation, 30 for getting started, and 32 for maintenance.
What if meat puts me off?
37 of the 60 recipes are vegetarian, built on eggs, dairy, beans, and tofu.
Are the recipes complicated, or full of hard-to-find ingredients?
No. Regular grocery-store ingredients, US measurements, one recipe per page, and 29 recipes ready in 15 minutes or less. Includes a weekly meal plan and a shopping list by aisle.
Can I trust the nutrition numbers?
They were calculated ingredient by ingredient from USDA data, not eyeballed. Every recipe shows calories, protein, fat, carbs, and fiber per serving.
How do I keep track for my appointments?
12 weeks of tracking for protein, water, fiber, symptoms, and strength, with a summary every 4 weeks to bring to your doctor or registered dietitian. Plus a basic home strength routine to help protect muscle.
What you won't find
Doses, medication advice, weight-loss promises, or miracle diets. This is general information and does not replace your doctor or registered dietitian.
