[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the first month or so, no, I did not "enjoy" food and wine in that sense.  I did not think about what meals I wanted to eat that day, I did not get excited about checking out new menus.  It actually was super helpful because I would eat solely for fuel and I'd choose much healthier, nutrient packed meals because it was difficult to eat sufficient calories (I struggled to get to 1000 calories a day and would end up drinking a glass of milk at bedtime to get myself there).

As my body got used to the medication I absolutely started enjoying food again (wine less so, but I enjoy having a few sips and then just no desire to drink any more),  I just eat way less.  I think my lack of desire for alcohol is a huge bonus.  But again- I enjoy tasting it and feeling a mild fuzzy feeling, but I just don't want any more.  I don't miss it at all. [/quote]

I'm on tirzepatide not semaglutide, but my experience was very similar to this poster. For the first few months I would have answered no to OP's question. I could hardly eat at all so eating rich restaurant food didn't feel good at all.

But now, a year later, the answer is yes absolutely. The beauty is I can eat a nice restaurant meal, feel content and satiated and not feel like I need more "bad" food because I've already blown my so-called diet with the restaurant meal. The other beauty is that even when I have something like a vacation week when I eat out a lot, I don't gain weight. I was not an obese person before, yet every time in my adult life before this med if I went on vacation or to visit family, my pants were tighter on the way home. Now, it's like magic and just doesn't cause that. [/quote]
