My doctor put me on Monjouro for weight loss. I lost weight with that, but the biggest thing was giving up on HIGH Carb foods. I mostly gave up things like potatoes (would have a small baked potato and would eat only half), I gave up French Fries totally. I only had miniature peanut butter cups in my house for low blood sugar episodes and stayed away from them otherwise. I stopped buying cookies, bars, cakes, etc from the store so I wouldn't have them in front of me. I gave up having ice cream as I was lactose intolerant, and if I ate too much, Oh Oh. It's takes willpower to do it, but my friends were understanding. If you go out to eat, start with the Salads, (limit the fatty dressings), stay away from anything that has breading and is deep fried. Eat baked Fish, Salmon, Chicken, Turkey, eggs (high in protein). I started having PROTEIN shakes once or twice a day also for a meal replacement or snack. I also bought Protein Bars for a snack between meals instead of having potato chips or other snacky things high in carbs. Hope this helps you.
