Solid protein through food, rainbow of veggies, plus creatine, B12, iron (was low before starting). Also exercise — muscle work plus cardio — sounds weird but it matters. Good sleep and stress control too. Food alone doesn't make you healthy. Bodies need to move, rest, build strength.

Protein and volume are the framework. Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, chicken - high protein, low calorie density. The medication handles appetite, you handle food quality. Even rough calorie tracking for a few weeks reveals the patterns quickly.

Congrats on the pregnancy! Looked it up quick - no documented birth defects in babies from Ozempic exposure. Animal studies show possible miscarriage risk. Not a doctor but I wouldn't terminate. Eat lots of protein and veggies, exercise if you can. Find a new OB who's less reactive.

Hard boiled eggs on hand solves the protein gap without cooking or planning - the cooker makes it consistent enough to actually stick to.
