GLP1 and food tracking

Hi there! I’ve used MyFitnessPal in the past - with success. But, as I have gotten older (49 and menopausal) I am having trouble losing and keeping weight off. Oh, changing hormones! Anyway, in addition to this platform, I also started the GLP1 medication, Zepbound- 2.5 dose. The food noise is GONE (yay!) and I pretty much have to make myself get to 1,200 calories. But, so far, so good. Anyone else also incorporating a GLP1 and what has your experience been?

    Hi. Also 49 (for 2 more short months) here. I started Zep in December. Did my 10th shot yesterday. I’m up to 7.5mg. I had no negative side effects on 2.5 and 5 but am having some intermittent nausea since my first 7.5 last week. Still very tolerable though and yeah, food noise gone. I haven’t obsessed over food ever. I literally can’t remember ever not constantly thinking about food in one context or another.
