What to eat on your injection day (to feel your best)
Written by Aria C.

Your injection day doesn't need a special diet. It needs a predictable one. Simple foods, enough protein, steady hydration, and no experiments. That's it. Here's the template.
The plate
| Meal | Protein | Carb | Fat | Why |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Breakfast | Greek yogurt or eggs | Berries or oats | A little almond butter | Easy on digestion; protein first |
| Lunch | Grilled chicken | Rice or quinoa | Avocado slice | Predictable, familiar, bland enough |
| Dinner | White fish or tofu | Roasted vegetables | Olive oil | Lighter, low-fiber if needed |
| Snacks | Cottage cheese | Banana | Handful of nuts | Protein + slow carb combos |
Foods to go easy on
- Fried or heavy-cream anything (slows digestion further)
- Huge salads — hard to finish and low on protein
- Alcohol (especially on the first few injection days)
- Sugary drinks, including most smoothies
“Injection day is not the day to try the new spicy restaurant. It's the day you're nice to your stomach.”
