How to use these recipes on a GLP-1
- Eat protein first. At every meal, eat the protein portion before anything else, while your appetite is strongest.
- Think mini-meals, not big ones. Four to five small eating moments beat three full meals when portions are tiny.
- Front-load your day. Appetite is usually best in the morning — a protein-rich breakfast does more work than a protein-rich dinner.
- Keep it soft and simple. Every recipe here uses 3 ingredients and gentle textures — no heavy frying, no aggressive spice.
