[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve been on GLP1s over a year.

I buy junk food more than I ever did because I can now trust myself with portion size. In my lifelong calorie restriction efforts pre GLP1, I would never dream of having my favorite cookies or ice cream in the house because I knew I wouldn’t stop at a couple spoonfuls. Now, I do. So it’s in the freezer for the first time in my life aside from when my parents stocked it. [/quote]

This is me exactly. Even things like pizza, burgers and fries are in my diet bc I don’t binge them anymore. I can enjoy them and be totally satisfied with a small portion[/quote]

This is an incredibly stupid thing for you both to do, you are the ones who will gain the weight back. [/quote]

Depends if they learn to eat small portions. It doesn’t mean they are eating that for every meal,[/quote]

NP. Maybe if they really learn to eat like they should : mostly healthy proteins and veggies, good quality carbs in moderation, no ultra processed food and then once a week, at the restaurant or at a party, yes, learn to eat a reasonable  portion of pizza and ice cream. But it looks like a lot of the posters on this thread think this is being on a diet, they probably even think it is a restrictive one. And they don’t seem keen at all to use the GLP phase to transition to that lifestyle « without the food noise preventing them to »

I am not anti GLP at all but this is the first time reading this forum that I see how badly abused it will most likely be. We are probably a more educated group than average, and we are on this forum discussing nutrition. I would not have expected the majority of the GLp1 takers in this particular thread to say that they enjoy GLP1 because it allows them to eat Junk food. This is not going to end well :( [/quote]

I have just started so I'm not an expert, but what I am finding is this: in the past, I 100% knew how to eat to lose weight. I tried REALLY hard but, I guess, had no willpower...when my kids had pizza, I couldn't resist and I would have 2-3 slices too. Now, I am totally able to have a healthier, high-protein dinner, and if my kids have pizza, I can have literally one bite and not want any more. If I make a bowl of ice cream for my kid, I can have one bite and not want any more.

So my diet is actually quite healthy - I track calories and macros and I pretty much never eat junk food or sugar. But when it is there, and it sounds appetizing, I can actually have one or two bites and stop.

That is what makes the GLPs so helpful. It is very hard to think about living a life where you will never again have a bite of ice cream or pizza or pad Thai. But if you can eat healthy and incorporate treats like this into your diet in SMALL portions, that is something most people can stick to for good. [/quote]

That makes sense to me and you are doing it right[/quote]
