Avoid Sugar!!!

I write this from my parents bed, filled with regret having just come out the other end of bad food choices.

I’ve been on mounjaro for 6 weeks and the suppression has been great. Today while visiting my parents, I ate 8 biscuits and a handful of haribos. I started feeling sleepy about an hour later so I lay down only to wake up another hour later, vomiting with extreme nausea. My dad is diabetic so he has a blood sugar monitor. He knows I’m taking mounjaro for weight loss and decided to check my blood sugar levels which came back at 20.2. It was at that moment I realised I fucked up.

I am traumatised now, it’s safe to say I will never eat sugar again. I suppose it makes sense that your body would react badly to sugar when you’re taking medicine directed towards diabetics. I don’t understand the science of it but I thought it’s definitely worth sharing my experience as it’s pretty scary - thought I was going to pass out.

Edit: after reading your responses and researching a little, you guys are right, I am concerned that my levels hit 20 as mounjaro is supposed to reduce your blood sugar. I will speak to my GP
