Smaller, protein-forward orders at Zaxby's for people on a GLP-1

If a full plate is more than you want, these are Zaxby's items with more protein for their calories. Every number is copied from the nutrition information Zaxby's publishes. They are ordering ideas, not a meal plan, and they are not a statement that an item is medically right for you.

Educational, not medical advice. Talk to your prescriber about what is right for you.

Questions

Where do these numbers come from?

Every calorie, protein, and fat number is copied from the nutrition information Zaxby's publishes. Protein per 100 calories is that item's protein divided by its calories, times 100.

What does "order this, box half" mean?

When the listed serving is large, boxing half leaves the rest for later. A half shown here is half the listed serving, not a new menu item.

Is this medical advice?

No. These are smaller, protein-forward ordering ideas from a published menu for people on a GLP-1. They do not say an item is medically appropriate. Talk to your prescriber about what is right for you. TableMacros is not a medical device.

Do customizations change the numbers?

Yes. Customizations change values. Sauces, cheese, and swaps are not included unless the published item already lists them.
