Hydration Tips

If you’re on Mounjaro, Zepbound, Wegovy, or Ozempic, you already know that these GLP-1 medications are game-changers for losing weight. But there’s one big question: What can I eat? With a slowed-down digestion and a reduced appetite, you need a GLP-1 meal plan that makes every bite count.

That means high-protein, nutrient-dense, and easy-to-digest meals that won’t leave you feeling sluggish or nauseous.

Whether you’re looking for meals while on Wegovy, a semaglutide diet, or a sample meal plan to help you stay on track, this free 7-day meal plan has got you covered.

This isn’t some restrictive 1200 calorie low carb meal plan that leaves you starving. Nope. We’re aiming for at least 1500 calories per day—enough to keep you full, fuelled, and feeling good while still helping with losing weight.

Plus, I’ve included vegan and vegetarian meal ideas, so there’s something for everyone!

How to Eat on Mounjaro, Zepbound, Wegovy, and Ozempic Without Feeling Awful

Before diving into this easy meal plan for the week, here are some must-know tips:

Prioritise protein – Whether you’re following a high protein day plan or a macro meal plan for women, protein is key. It prevents muscle loss, stabilises blood sugar, and keeps you full longer.

Stay hydrated – Slowed digestion can lead to constipation and dehydration. Aim for two litres of water daily, and if you feel dizzy, consider adding electrolytes.

Fibre is essential – The volumetrics diet meal plan concept works here: eating high-fibre, high-volume foods keeps you full while helping digestion. Think veggies, legumes, and whole grains (I have a whole guide to the Volumetrics Diet here).

Avoid greasy, heavy foods – A semaglutide diet works best when you stick to lean proteins, whole foods, and easy-to-digest meals. A greasy burger might sound great until nausea kicks in.

Small, balanced meals work best – You might find that three meals and one snack suit you better than big meals.

Now, let’s get into the 7-day meal plan.

Nausea making meals hard? These food fixes help.

A Quick Note Before We Dive In

I don’t usually do meal plans because, honestly? I find them a bit restrictive. Life isn’t that predictable, and trying to follow a strict plan to the letter can feel overwhelming.

Instead, I prefer to focus on flexible, balanced eating that actually fits into real life.

That said, I know that when you’re on GLP-1 medications, it can be hard to figure out what to eat—especially when your appetite is unpredictable and some foods suddenly feel off-limits.

So, think of this 7-day GLP-1 meal plan as a starting point. It’s here to give you easy, high-protein meal ideas that you can mix and match, rather than something you have to follow rigidly.

Use it as inspiration to build meals that work for you, adapt portion sizes as needed, and don’t be afraid to swap in your favourite foods.

Now, let’s get to the good stuff—meals that keep you full, fuelled, and feeling your best!

Studies

GLP-1 receptor agonists like Wegovy and Ozempic help with weight loss by reducing appetite and slowing digestion, making dietary choices crucial (Kute et al., 2024).

Protein intake is essential to prevent muscle loss and maintain satiety while on GLP-1 medications (Locatelli et al., 2024).

Hydration is critical as GLP-1 medications can cause slowed digestion and increase the risk of constipation (Mahase, 2023).

High-fibre foods aid digestion and help maintain satiety, aligning with the volumetrics diet concept (Mazurek et al., 2023).

Avoiding greasy and heavy foods is important as these can worsen nausea and gastrointestinal discomfort on GLP-1 medications (Mahase, 2023).

Smaller, more frequent meals can be easier to digest and prevent discomfort due to delayed gastric emptying (Głuszczyk et al., 2024).

A balanced approach to weight management, including nutrition and exercise, is crucial for sustaining weight loss and muscle retention (Locatelli et al., 2024).
