GLP-1s: Overeating vs. "Food Noise"

[Brave_FWIW]

Is this a daily thing – the eating example?

Looks like the OP's long gone...

Dang. A good rant wasted.

 

[BrookEdit]

I applaud your caution.

I have been waking up SO hungry lately. It is a new development since starting sema - super early morning hunger pangs. Did this happen to anyone else?

Are you eating less in the evening?

Are you eating less in the evening?

Yeah, I am. I will try a protein shake before bed!

Drugs affect dopamine pathways tied to food urges and the noisy thoughts around eating. Appears to influence alcohol disorders too. Tirzepatide might help that.

Has anyone experienced food aversions on sema? I used to love avocados, but now the thought of one makes me feel ill.

That is so interesting! I have been completely turned off of chicken. I used to eat it all the time for protein, but now I can barely stand the thought of it.

Yeah when you're that nauseous and barely eating, of course you're going to feel like garbage. I think we get too caught up in crushing the food noise and zero hunger thing. Yes, drop weight fast, but your body's signaling that you're running on empty. Listen to it.

Most people do report the food noise drops, which is what you're dealing with. Interesting that it wasn't the case for you.

Let me know how it works, I've been thinking about splitting the dose. Around day five the food noise ramps up for me.

Week 2 of 0.25 and I'm getting stomach cramps more often. Light most of the time but spicy food and heavier dinners? Forget sleeping flat — cramps hit the next morning plus a little diarrhoea. Had soup at lunch, overdid it, got painful upper cramping. Took Gaviscon, walked, felt better.

Spot on with that one. Having it confirmed by others definitely helps.
