A GLP-1 food diary that records what you actually eat

There is no single protein target for everyone

The joint GLP-1 nutrition advisory emphasizes individual nutritional assessment and support. A number used by another person, an app default, or a screenshot is not automatically your target.

This guide does not set a calorie deficit, protein amount, supplement plan, or list of foods you must avoid. Use the goals agreed with your healthcare professional and discuss concerns about intake with them.

An entry can be short and specific

This is an example of recording, not a recommendation to eat that meal. Allergies, preferences and medical needs still matter.

Check the first estimate

If you use photo-based food logging in CalZen, review the recognized dish, ingredients and amount. A photo cannot reliably reveal every ingredient or how much remained after the meal. Correct the entry when you know more.

For packaged food, your product label can help you check the portion and nutrients. Keep “per serving” and “per package” distinct. Estimates in a diary are useful records, not a medical assessment.

Review completeness before judging a total

A low total may reflect a day with missing entries. Check whether you recorded snacks, drinks and the amount actually eaten before interpreting the number. Missing data should remain missing, not silently become zero.

Keep medication records and wellbeing notes separately dated. If eating or drinking is becoming difficult, or symptoms concern you, seek professional advice rather than trying to solve it by changing a tracker target.

Keep the diary with your other records

CalZen brings meals, protein estimates, weight and GLP-1 records into one app. You can review your own entries before an appointment and prepare questions, without claiming the app can identify why a symptom occurred.

The food diary does not change a prescription. A weekly menu, where purchased, is a separate product and should not be treated as a clinical diet prescribed for a medication.
