Are you taking Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or another GLP-1 medication and wondering what snacks are best for your weight loss journey? You’re not alone. With appetite suppression and smaller portion sizes becoming the norm, choosing the right snacks is more important than ever — especially in Canada and Quebec, where high-quality protein supplements can make all the difference.
GLP-1 medications like semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro) significantly reduce appetite. While this helps with caloric restriction, it also means you need to make every bite count. Protein-rich snacks help preserve lean muscle mass, prevent energy crashes, and support metabolic health during weight loss.
The ideal snack on Ozempic or Wegovy is high in protein, low in sugar, easy to digest, and satisfying in small portions. Here are the top recommendations from Dr. Larocque and the Motivation Minceur team:
A protein shake provides 20–30g of complete protein in a format that’s gentle on a sensitive stomach. Look for whey isolate or plant-based blends with minimal sugar. Motivation Minceur’s line of protein supplements is specifically designed for weight loss programs in Quebec and Canada — available at our shop.
High in protein and probiotics, Greek yogurt (plain, full-fat) pairs perfectly with fresh berries for antioxidants. Keep portions small — 100–150g is ideal when appetite is reduced.
One of the most complete protein sources available. One egg provides 6g of quality protein and healthy fats that promote satiety. Easy to prepare in advance.
Quebec offers excellent artisanal cheeses that are protein-dense and satisfying. A small portion curbs cravings without overloading the digestive system.
Look for bars with at least 15g protein and less than 5g sugar. Avoid highly processed options with artificial sweeteners that can cause GI distress — a common concern when taking GLP-1 medications.
Most patients on GLP-1 medications do well with 1–2 small snacks per day between meals. Listen to your body — if you’re not hungry, don’t force a snack. The medication is working as intended.
Absolutely. Protein shakes are one of the best snack options on Wegovy or Ozempic because they deliver high-quality nutrition in a small, easy-to-digest volume. Choose formulas with 20–25g protein and minimal sugar.
Yes, tirzepatide (Mounjaro) is particularly effective at suppressing appetite. If you’re not hungry between meals, that’s a sign the medication is working. Focus on getting adequate protein at your main meals rather than forcing snacks.
At Motivation Minceur in Laval, Dr. Jean-François Larocque and the team support patients on GLP-1 medications with personalized nutrition guidance, high-quality protein supplements, and behavioral coaching. Our approach goes beyond the medication to build lasting lifestyle habits.
