Since GLP-1s suppress appetite, getting enough protein is a challenge. Here's my daily meal plan that hits 150g protein at ~1800 calories:

  • Breakfast: Greek yogurt (20g) + protein oats (15g) = 35g, 350 cal
  • Lunch: Chicken breast 6oz (50g) + veg + rice = 55g, 500 cal
  • Snack: Protein shake (30g) = 30g, 160 cal
  • Dinner: Salmon 5oz (35g) + veg + quinoa = 40g, 500 cal
  • Evening: Cottage cheese 1/2 cup (14g) = 14g, 110 cal

Total: ~174g protein, ~1620 cal. Adjust portions as needed.

This is gold. I've been struggling to hit 120g and this plan makes it look easy. Bookmarked.

Don't forget micronutrients! When eating in a deficit with suppressed appetite, a multivitamin is a good insurance policy. Also consider fiber supplementation.
