[quote=Anonymous]I’m doing 1200 calories and 120 grams of protein under a medically supervised plan with Wegovy.

Breakfast: Chobani Compete (170 cal/20g protein) and a protein coffee shake, (70 cal/ 12 G protein).

I’m getting food from Mighty Meals for lunch.  They have options at less than 500 calories (some 350 and below), 50 G protein.  Filet tips salad.   Buffalo chicken salad.  Lean ground beef with some seasoning and onions, spinach, egg whites and salsa are a favorite.  50 G protein, 380 Cal

Snack: fulfil protein bar: 160 cals, 15 G protein

Dinner: I often don’t have much appetite because of the Wegovy, and have a smoothie: 2 cups mixed berries, 1 cup almond mild, 3/4 cup low-fat skyr.  275 cals, 17 grams of protein.  I’ve started branching out to spinach, mango, pineapple.

That leaves me with 6 g of protein and 225 calories. I try to eat a Souper Girl gazpacho, which is 110 cals and almost no protein, but gets me a couple servings of veggies. Other snacks at 200 Cals of less and at least 7 G protein:

Cheese sticks, alone or wrapped in prosciutto 
Parm Crisps 
Egg white bites (I get six at a time from Mighty Meals)
Balanced Breaks
Protein Balls made with Kodiak Cake mix and Rx Almond butter
Turkey or Waygu Beef Jerky

120 G protein (withoUt protein powder). is doable with 1200 calories. But long term, it will be hard to maintain without some help from the Wegovy. Going from 2.5 to 5 tonight. The 2.5 helps— but wears off after 4-5 days and I spend a couple days starving.  [/quote]
