WHAT I EAT IN A DAY ON SEMAGLUTIDE AND ONE MONTH UPDATE ON GLP-1

Patient storyAmanda Lewis11,342 views20:38Dec 2024

Our summary

Amanda Lewis films a full day of eating one month after starting a GLP-1 medication through Mochi Health. She says she prioritizes protein over calorie counts, builds meals around animal-based protein, and describes the style as inspired by carnivore eating without calling herself carnivore. Her day includes an omelette with bacon and melon, vegetable dumplings with green and peppermint tea, and a dinner of ribeye steak, mashed sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts with bacon.

What else the video covers

Between meals she gives a one month update. She says the membership gives access to a doctor, a nutritionist and customer support, and that the shot is a separate $99 charge that she says does not rise as the dose increases. She also says Mochi adds B12 to the shot, and she mentions a $40 off referral link. Her main change is that food noise, which she links to a lifelong struggle with weight and binge eating, has become non-existent, and that she feels full for much longer. She says food still tastes the same to her and that injecting does not hurt.

She says she has injected in both the stomach and the thigh and prefers the thigh, which she feels gives her fewer side effects and longer lasting benefits. She reports losing some weight, which she thinks is mostly inflammation or water, and notes looser clothing and a more defined face. She takes her shot on Thursday nights after a high protein meal and suggests dosing at night so nausea passes during sleep, along with melatonin and magnesium powder. These are her personal experiences and not medical advice.

Questions this video answers

How much does semaglutide cost through Mochi Health?

Amanda Lewis says the shot is a flat $99 that does not go up as the dose increases. She says there is also a separate recurring monthly membership fee covering a doctor, a nutritionist and customer support, and that she has a $40 off referral for it.

Does food noise go away on semaglutide after one month?

She says that after a month her food noise is non-existent, which she says she had never experienced after a lifetime of struggling with weight and binge eating. She also says she rarely thinks about what she will eat next and stays full for a long time.

Is it better to inject semaglutide in the thigh or stomach?

She says she has tried both and prefers the thigh, because she feels her stomach has too much fat between the skin and muscle. She reports fewer side effects and longer lasting benefits with the thigh, and notes that everyone is different.

What time of day should you take a GLP-1 shot to manage nausea?

She says she takes hers on Thursday nights after eating a lot of protein. She suggests nighttime dosing because the worst symptoms, such as nausea, happen while you sleep, and she recommends melatonin and magnesium powder.

  • The GLP-1 diet: what to eat on Ozempic, Wegovy or Zepbound, and what to limit, from the 2025 joint advisory

    There is no special GLP-1 diet, but there is now a consensus on how to eat on one. A 2025 advisory from four medical societies says to build meals around fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, lean proteins, nuts and seeds; limit refined carbohydrates, sugary drinks, red and processed meats, fast food and ultra-processed snacks; eat small regular meals; drink enough fluids; and put protein first, because appetite drops and muscle is at risk. During dose increases, smaller meals and avoiding fatty or high-fibre foods ease nausea.

  • The best GLP-1 for weight loss, ranked by the evidence and then by the bill

    By weight lost, the order is settled: tirzepatide (Zepbound) first at 20.2% in the only head-to-head, then semaglutide 7.2 mg (Wegovy HD) at 18.7%, then semaglutide 2.4 mg (Wegovy) at 13.7% to 15.6%, then the pills. By what you pay, the order nearly inverts: compounded semaglutide from $69 a month, the Wegovy tablet from $149, Wegovy pen $349, Zepbound $299 to $699 by dose. The best one is where those two lists meet for your budget and your plan.

  • GLP-1 constipation, nausea, diarrhoea and fatigue: the label numbers, and what the labels say to do

    The four gut effects are the four most common side effects of every GLP-1, and the labels put numbers on them. On Wegovy 2.4 mg: nausea 44%, diarrhoea 30%, constipation 24%, vomiting 24%, fatigue 11%, against 16%, 16%, 11%, 6% and 5% on placebo. On Zepbound at 15 mg: nausea 28%, diarrhoea 23%, constipation 11%, vomiting 13%, fatigue 7%. They cluster around dose increases, they are the reason 6.8% of Wegovy patients and up to 6.7% of Zepbound patients stopped, and both labels prescribe the same fix: climb slower.
