Food Aversions on MJ?

[WellWin]

The reduced food focus is a MAJOR benefit. For those new to GLP-1s, it's wild how much mental energy used to go to planning meals, thinking about snacks, and obsessing over cravings. It's quite liberating to have that space back.

I do about 11 mg of tirz every 5 days. hunger started creeping back so I tried another one at .5 and it was like that first good dose again. I use it as-needed now when stress hunger kicks in. haven't needed it in a couple months but nice to have.

try /r/GLPGrad/ instead. people who came off the med have some solid posts and real advice from folks in the same place.

Mounjaro hit my food aversions in waves. Chicken and eggs went first — couldn't even smell them around weeks 3-5. Beef stayed away for about 4 months total. Dairy mostly held up except for milk in coffee. Fish and shellfish never bothered me at all. Whole thing slowly normalized but on a longer timeline than I expected. Yogurt and oatmeal carried me through the worst stretch.

Food aversion patterns on MJ are idiosyncratic - coffee going while popcorn stays is a common split. The GLP-1 effect on reward pathways hits different foods based on individual metabolic context.

The drink aversion shift is one of the more consistent effects - coffee intolerance shows up often right alongside the food noise reduction. The benefit window is different for everyone.
