What Foods Can I Eat During Treatment?

📊 What patients commonly report

Based on the patient reports provided, there is limited specific information about a comprehensive list of foods to eat during treatment. However, one patient advised to "really do limit fats and NO sulphurous foods to begin with," specifically mentioning that "eggs, brassicas like broccoli cauliflower etc can cause horrible sulphur burps." Another patient learned to "eat differently, less" but "more frequently." Tracking "calories and protein" using tools like MyFitnessPal was also suggested. One patient noted that weight loss "still comes down to carbs" and that Ozempic led them to eat more carbs, which "dampens weight loss."

"I think weight loss still comes down to carbs and Ozempic for me has led to me eating more carbs because of the glucose control it provides which then dampens weight loss."

⚠️

Limiting certain foods like fats and sulphurous items may help manage digestive side effects such as "horrible sulphur burps."

These are patient-reported experiences, not medical advice. Always consult your prescriber for decisions about your treatment.
