I run a small cafe, so I'm around muffins, scones, and samples all day. I've been on a GLP-1 for about seven months and I'm down 31 pounds, but portion control is still a daily negotiation. I'm scheduled for major nose reconstruction in six weeks, and my ENT said I'm a slow healer - my last minor procedure took almost three weeks to stop looking angry. I'm trying to keep protein and water up and not live on cold brew and pastry edges, but I'm nervous. For anyone who's had a bigger surgery while on a GLP-1: did you do anything non-medical that helped you feel prepared? I'm not after dosing or specific peptide advice, just real-life experiences.
