I'm a late-day eater/snacker. Because I work out of the house, it's easy for me to control food intake during the day. Once I get home, I honestly eat about 80% of my calories. It works for me. I guess it's almost a form of intermittent fasting?[/quote]

It honestly sounds like a form of binge eating that you manage harm reduction for.

Maybe? But I'm just not hungry early in the day, and I don't like going to sleep hungry. Different strokes for different folks! If I've maintained for a decade, then it clearly works well for me. [/quote]

For sure. It just goes to show that even a self-described success story has to engage in disordered behaviors to maintain. Which is totally consistent with the long term data for weight loss maintainers, of course. [/quote]

Eating once a day is not disordered. Everyone is not the same. Nobody should eat when they aren’t hungry. That’s what is disordered. [/quote]

Another factor is age - with perimenopause and menopause, for many women, digestion slows down essentially permanently, making it physically uncomfortable for many women to eat medium to large dinners. Beyond GI unpleasantness, that issue can also contribute to insomnia. It’s pretty evident that reframing OP’s decade-long success as an extremely slow-burning binge-eating disorder is what a poster or two has to do in order to salve their own frustration at never managing their own binge-eating, and now relying on semiglutides.
