Is it a snacking problem? Or is it a boredom problem? (Could even be a dehydration problem)

[-] DannyMac@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

For me it was boredom and I felt good doing it. Semaglutide has changed that for me. Not only has it made it feel impossible to overeat, but it has enabled me to be able to avoid unnecessary eating in the first place. I still have the habit of opening the fridge and cabinets to see what's there, but I feel a bit disgusted with the thought of eating unnecessarily. It wasn't overnight. When I was put on the dose that I'm on now, I still tried to overeat out of habit but I ended up paying for it. I felt nauseous and was producing sour burps. Now I know when I've had enough. I'm saving a bunch of money on food because I eat normal portions now instead of obscene amounts and my blood sugar isn't HFCS anymore ๐Ÿ˜†

My hope is semaglutide can be readily accessible to anyone who is obese because I feel a cure has been found. Hell, there's evidence that it may be helpful for other non-food related addictions too!

When it happens naturally we call it going viral.

When it is an organised attempt to go viral what should we call it?

Smallpox blankets...

I use semaglutide to cure me of my snacking problem. I hardly ever snack anymore. Eat more healthy and lighter meals. It's been a lifesaver and I don't have to worry about being prediabetic anymore.

[-] DannyMac@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Same! It is a miracle drug for sure! I am diabetic and obese and it has fixed me to where I eat normally. I feel that I eat as appropriately as a person of a healthy weight which has resulted in me losing 50 lbs since January. I was a person that was at 315 lbs, so you know I did a lot extracurricular eating. When I eat out now, I either order something really small or I'm able to eat half of it and have the other half for later... It's like I'm getting my meals 50% off, lol!

I hope that this drug can be of readily available for any obese person. There's even evidence that it can help with other non-food related addictions too.

Me when I smoke weed - the thought barely crosses my mind, I just end up in the pantry. Wake up the next day like "what happened, what's with all this garbage?"

It me! I wish I could find a way to shut my id the hell up and take control of my body back from it. Feels like it's holding me hostage sometimes. Here I am on Lemmy instead of getting anything done because my subconscious instinct to fuck off is more powerful than my conscious desire to get work done

[-] Pons_Aelius@kbin.social 9 points 1 year ago

Comfort eating is one of the hardest addictions to break because unlike drugs, you cannot go cold turkey and stop.

Most of us have never actually been hungry and eat because it is lunchtime or because we are sad and want to distract ourselves.

What worked for me was fasting. It was incredibly hard at first but it did reset my relationship with food. My stomach now decides when and what I eat, not my mind.

[-] spacesweedkid27@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I have early in the day the complete opposite problem.

[-] MashedTech@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Me basically. I'm trying to cut it out though. Otherwise I will put on weight and fuck up my system.
