I'm on Mounjaro for T2D, previously on Ozempic. Besides the weight loss and the blood sugar control it also eliminated my IBS as well. Before the drug certain foods, especially nuts would cause excruciating digestive issues. I can now eat them without worry. It's been amazing.

I 100% know what you mean. I went through a phase where I'd measure out 3 ounces of cashews and have that as a lunch because it was fast, and measuring meant I wasn't taking in too many calories. Always irritated my gut though, anything high in fat did it.

I don't do that on GLP-1s, partially because fat doesn't immediately send me to the bathroom anymore, but also partially because I'm not drawn to high fat meals anymore. Except when thc is involved and then some ice cream might happen.
