Man, this resonated with me. Me too, girl, me too. Loud food noise since about age 13, berating myself for what I ate all the time, trying to starve myself, thinking about working off all the food through exercise all the time. I've always been slim, but it was a constant battle. And I, too, am sad about a lifetime spent thinking about food, feeling guilty for eating, focused on working off food and FEELING AWFUL ABOUT MYSELF. Ugh! I started Zepbound 12 weeks ago. I have lost 16 pounds and I feel and look fantastic, but even more wonderful is the fact that I'm not so obsessed with food, what am I going to eat, how much am I going to eat, how long can I delay the next time I eat, are there going to be temptations the next gathering I go to that I'm going to have to fight off or fall victim to, did I ruin my day by starting it with a donut and now I'll just binge all day.

I haven't done those exhausting, unhealthy things in 3 months and I feel peaceful and content.

I’m one of the posters who asked questions as to how Glp-1s work, and I’m still confused. Are you saying now that you are on it, you can eat the donut and not gain? How are you keeping your intake to a level that makes you lose weight, without tracking it? I am “only” less than 10 lbs over my goal weight, but it’s all crept on it past year and a half. I eat and exercise exactly the same as I always did, so I assume it’s a slowed metabolism from menopause/aging. I feel like I already eat a healthy, portion controlled diet.

I’m a different poster but I’ll eat half or even a full donut and be fully satisfied and walk away with no constant want to come back and have another little piece or whatever until they are gone. It didn’t take away the enjoyment of food but I have a few bites and I’m good. So while I may eat the donut, it makes it easy to stick to the serving size. Overall I just eat less.

Thanks, and makes sense. This is why I can’t tell if Glp-1s will work for me. I already can ignore the donut (not saying I never indulge, but I’m not someone who regularly eats sweets or fries or other junk, and if I did it would be, as you say, a few bites here or there). Unfortunately, I’m still 15 lbs over my goal weight.

If you take GLP-1s to lose 15lbs there’s a strong chance you will end up even more over your “goal weight.” Many people report their appetites come back intensified when the come off the meds. You may have bad side effects so you can’t stay on them - or do you really intend to be on such an expensive med your whole life?

I may in fact stay on forever. They've improved my life so much. I started out not technically overweight (BMI 22.8) and now at 20. But even more than fitting into skinny jeans again, it's just cleared my mind, removed my food obsession, and removed my constant hunger and cravings that really were a big, uncomfortable part of my life. I will never be overweight. It's terrible to say, but if it weren't for my kids, I might rather die than be overweight. I am super fat phobic. So I have tortured myself my entire teenage and adult life in the pursuit of being thin. I'm not naturally thin, but I have always been on the slim side, by fighting for it. I am so relieved that on these meds, I don't have to fight anymore.

Cost is no issue for me.

You sound utterly disordered.

Loud food noise since about age 13, berating myself for what I ate all the time, trying to starve myself, thinking about working off all the food through exercise all the time. I've always been slim, but it was a constant battle. And I, too, am sad about a lifetime spent thinking about food, feeling guilty for eating, focused on working off food and FEELING AWFUL ABOUT MYSELF. Ugh! I started Zepbound 12 weeks ago. I have lost 16 pounds and I feel and look fantastic, but even more wonderful is the fact that I'm not so obsessed with food, what am I going to eat, how much am I going to eat, how long can I delay the next time I eat, are there going to be temptations the next gathering I go to that I'm going to have to fight off or fall victim to, did I ruin my day by starting it with a donut and now I'll just binge all day.

I haven't done those exhausting, unhealthy things in 3 months and I feel peaceful and content.

I’m one of the posters who asked questions as to how Glp-1s work, and I’m still confused. Are you saying now that you are on it, you can eat the donut and not gain? How are you keeping your intake to a level that makes you lose weight, without tracking it? I am “only” less than 10 lbs over my goal weight, but it’s all crept on it past year and a half. I eat and exercise exactly the same as I always did, so I assume it’s a slowed metabolism from menopause/aging. I feel like I already eat a healthy, portion controlled diet.

I’m a different poster but I’ll eat half or even a full donut and be fully satisfied and walk away with no constant want to come back and have another little piece or whatever until they are gone. It didn’t take away the enjoyment of food but I have a few bites and I’m good. So while I may eat the donut, it makes it easy to stick to the serving size. Overall I just eat less.

Man, this resonated with me. Me too, girl, me too.
