[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I take trizeptide because it helps stop binge eating disorder.
When I tell the shamers that they usually change the subject.

Were you actually diagnosed with BED? I ask because tirz stopped my binging also. It has changed my life, which was formerly dominated by food obsession and disgusting, frequent episodes of smashing burgers, candy, pastries and ice cream. I never called it BED though nor did I ever receive a diagnosis. I just considered it laziness and lack of discipline on my part and I still do. Probably why I keep my lips tightly zipped about taking this med. I feel I wasn’t strong enough to do it on my own - I feel embarrassed and ashamed that I stuffed my face with so much crap constantly before. It’s interesting though, if I think about it as a disorder, then it feels less shameful. At any rate, tirz has been miraculous for me. I’m back to a size 4 again and I feel beautiful, strong, happy and in control.  [/quote]
NP I was diagnosed when I went to an obesity specialist to try medication. Is it it’s crazy how I struggled with something for 30 years and it has immediately stopped.  Zero binges in 12 weeks after having multiple per week. I even had some very stressful situations [/quote]

It stopped immediately because you have a metabolic problem, and the medication addressed it. You don’t have a willpower problem, despite most of the people on this thread wanting to say so.

Where was this metabolic problem before the wide availability of extremely calorie dense and widely available shelf stable food? [/quote]

Where was it? People have always had metabolic disorders that cause weight gain. It’s not like, oh, for example—hypothyroidism—is a new thing. But medications (psych meds and prednisone come right to mind) disrupt hormones and cause weight gain as well, and such medications are now ubiquitous. Probably all kinds of other endocrine disruption happening as well that we don’t know about.

Get over your nasty need to paint overweight people as sitting in front of a television pounding pizza and twinkies—it says more about you than anyone else.[/quote]
