Kelly is currently on 10mg of a week, but she said it wasn’t working as it was supposed to.

She said the drug had stopped suppressing her appetite but that all food now tasted horrible so she was struggling to eat.

Sharing a clip of what she consumed in a day, Kelly started with a peppermint tea.

She revealed she needed it to help soothe the side effects of having a takeaway the night before while on .

She then had a small portion of spaghetti bolognese she had made which was the only thing she managed to eat that day.

After her lunch, Kelly had a snack which consisted of sushi and a pepperami snack box and an iced coffee.

But as soon as the food touched her lips she grimaced and couldn’t stand the taste of it.

After her failed lunch, Kelly tried to eat a protein bar and strawberries but was again put off by the taste.

“This was also disgusting and I was just over it all,”; she penned.

When she went home, Kelly made a bowl of cheesy pasta, but as soon as she made it, she couldn’t bring herself to eat it.

She left over half, adding that she should have just ‘ordered a pizza’.

“I feel like this is the side of people don’t see!”; she captioned the post.

“I’m starving but don’t fancy anything!! It is such a struggle! I might actually come off Mounjaro at this point!”;

She went on to explain that the drug hadn’t suppressed her appetite but had made her taste buds change.

She added: “I don’t think people understand my situation, I don’t have suppression, I’m not not eating food because of my dose, the Mounjaro has changed my taste buds.

“I AM HUNGRY and I am able to eat how I used to – I just have different tastes now but I can’t stomach anything.”;

The clip has gone viral on her TikTok account @keprazy with over 214k views and 2,400 likes.

People were quick to share their own experiences in the comments.

One person wrote: “I came off weight loss injections after having lost 3st on them and lost a further 4st... My appetite was forever changed.”;

Another commented: “I can’t eat eggs, dairy, meat and fried foods now!”;

“Omg this!! I do have the suppression, but even when I feel hungry I can’t like any food,”; penned a third.

Meanwhile a fourth said: “Everything tastes so ordinary now.”;

“Yes Mounjaro has definitely changed what foods I used to like,”; claimed a fifth

Someone else added: “I was the same! Could eat takeaway all day long but couldn’t eat anything normal.”;
