Elizabeth Read, a British content creator, recently shared her daily diet while using Mounjaro, a weight loss injection designed to lower blood sugar levels for individuals with type 2 diabetes. Her meals include a variety of hearty dishes like bacon rolls, steak dinners, and carveries.
Elizabeth has experienced significant success with this regimen, shedding over 40 pounds. On her Instagram, where she boasts more than 8,000 followers, she regularly updates her audience with clips of the meals she enjoys while on the medication.
One morning, she indulged in a classic Greggs bacon and egg breakfast roll, complete with brown sauce. Admitting she ordered from the bakery due to forgetting her grocery delivery, she also treated herself to a hash brown and a flat white to complete her breakfast.
For lunch, Elizabeth opted for a bag of prawn cocktail-flavored Skips and a couple of chocolate biscuits. Later, she enjoyed an evening out at a steakhouse with friends, where she savored two glasses of wine alongside honey padron peppers.
Elizabeth – who said she ordered from the bakery because she ‘forgot to get her shopping delivered’ – also added a hash brown and a flat white to her meal.
For her lunch, Elizabeth ate a packet of prawn cocktail flavoured Skips and two chocolate biscuits before heading to a steak restaurant with some friends, where she had two glasses of wine and honey padron peppers.
Elizabeth then opted to have the fillet steak with chips, a side of salad and some gravy. The mother – who said she was only ‘one pound away from her goal weight’ – said she cleared the plate.
Elizabeth is currently taking 7.5mg Mounjaro – which is the branded name for tirzepatide – and has been injecting it for more than 30 weeks.

A viewer asked whether she was getting Mounjaro from the NHS and whether she had type 2 diabetes.
Elizabeth responded: ‘Yes my BMI was over 30 when I started so I pay for it myself privately.’
She weighed 192 pounds at the end of June last year and is now around 151 pounds with help from the injection.
In a more recent clip, Elizabeth started her morning with two crumpets with butter and said: ‘I should probably have something more high protein if I’m honest but it’s what I fancied.’
She washed the carbs down with a latte before having a protein shake for lunch. Elizabeth then decided ‘last minute’ to go to the Toby Carvery to have a roast dinner.
‘It was so rammed for a Thursday night I couldn’t believe it, we had to wait ages for a table,’ she said. ‘When I go out I typically have a couple of glasses of wine,’ she added, before showing herself sipping on white wine.
She decided to get gammon for her carvery along with beef-dripping roast potatoes, mashed potatoes, peas, carrots, gravy, Yorkshire pudding and stuffing, although she admitted she couldn’t finish all of the meal.
On another day Elizabeth filmed herself going out for a ‘family member’s birthday’ and ordered a lamb Rogan Josh with chips, rice, poppadum, and a Peshwari naan.

This comes as more than 80 Britons have died after using weight-loss and diabetes jabs such as Ozempic and Mounjaro.
The Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency reported at least 22 fatalities linked to the medication up to the end of January. A further 60 deaths were recorded for products aimed to help with Type 2 diabetes.
Nearly 400 people also required hospital treatment since the rollout of the products over the past few years.
The National Health Service has warned patients to ‘never take an anti-obesity medicine if it has not been prescribed to you’.
Susan McGowan, a 58 year-old nurse from Lanarkshire, died from multiple organ failure, septic shock and pancreatitis after taking two low-dose injections of tirzepatide.
She took the jabs for a two-week period before her death on September 4. It is thought to be the first time the medicine has been listed as a contributing factor on a death certificate.
