Ate too much on Sema? Help!

The slowed digestion is probably what's causing both - sema keeps things in your stomach longer so the alcohol keeps fermentation going, which would explain the breath. A breathalyzer measures blood alcohol so you'd probably be fine legally but the physical misery is real. Stay hydrated, light foods, give it time.
 
TDEE calculator plus a tracking app is the right framework - a holiday meal over maintenance for one night doesn't need a dramatic response; the week's average is what matters for progress, not any single data point.
 
The OMAD failure pattern is exactly that - hunger accumulates all day and the single large meal creates the bloating and discomfort the spacing was supposed to avoid. The GLP-1 context makes satiety more predictable; multiple smaller meals work better with the medication's mechanism than OMAD does.
 
eggs plus a protein shake as the recovery meal is a solid sequence - it gets the protein number back without overwhelming a stomach that's already been through it. the overeating-on-a-special-occasion experience is almost universal, and the key is what you do the next day rather than how bad you feel about it the night of
 
the two protein shakes plus the single main meal structure is one of the cleaner approaches for hitting high protein targets on a very compressed eating window - the shakes cover the muscle preservation requirement at the times when food isn't going in, and the meal provides everything else. 180-200g daily is on the high end and useful for anyone doing meaningful resistance training alongside the medication
 
the Costco 18-pack per-unit math is the right approach for protein shakes as a daily staple - the per-unit cost at warehouse club pricing versus individual or Amazon 12-pack is real and adds up. 60-80g at lunch and dinner in a noon-to-7 window is a solid protein structure on a compressed eating schedule
 
Great advice! Just wrapped up my first week. Was doing genuinely well with hydration, upping protein and fiber, but had no idea how fast a full stomach could turn painfully uncomfortable. Take the eat-slowly advice seriously.
 
Right?! Had a work dinner Wednesday somewhere with all-you-can-eat grilled meats and went way overboard. Weighed in the following day and only saw just over a pound added. My stomach though, felt like it packed on twenty.
 
Ate lunch roughly three hours back, my first food today, and still feel a bit queasy. Only had a single spoonful of mashed potatoes plus two small pieces of lamb. Had to get up and walk around afterward just to feel some relief.
 
Trying to, honestly, but probably not managing it. Feel queasy for ages after any meal. Can't figure out how to push past the nausea, and digestion just takes forever. If I've got an evening workout at six, I basically can't eat past early afternoon or I'll feel like I'm about to be sick.
 
Mostly gas, occasional diarrhea, burping, and if overeating happened, felt like something got physically stuck partway down. Have to stop eating well before reaching full capacity!
 
Water constantly. Protein shakes. Crackers. The opening ten days brought brutal nausea. Basically nothing stayed down. Staying upright felt impossible. Shot number two brought another rough stretch, exhaustion and queasiness lasting several days. It's been interfering with mental health medication in a genuinely bad way. The exhaustion combined with loose stools has been miserable. Down eight pounds heading into the third weekly dose, given yesterday. Good luck.
 
Awesome, glad things have been feeling great! Wow, brave move hitting a buffet honestly, hope your stomach's held up okay since! Been dealing with waves of nausea myself since finishing that shot yesterday, but sticking to clean eating, plain proteins and vegetables plus shakes, and staying on top of water so it's manageable. We've got this!
 
Hey love! Just spent two days stuck in bed dealing with brutal sulfur burps and throwing up. Currently on 1.7mg wegovy, and this has only happened once before, right when I first started the medication. My mistake this time was a few pizza slices Friday night, the day after my injection lol
Have to be really careful with food choices timing-wise, especially that first day or two post-shot. I usually stick strictly to chicken, fish, and vegetables, maybe some protein yogurt, fruit, and a small carb portion.

Small, frequent, simple meals. Makes a huge difference! You might push the limits occasionally and get away with it clean, or land flat on your back like I have the last two days.

Also, annoying as it is to keep hearing, stay hydrated. Keeps everything moving through your system! I also eat three or four prunes daily for fiber.
