Just eat less?

The shift from wanting food to having to remind yourself to eat is one of the more disorienting parts - after years of food being a central thought, the quiet takes adjustment. It usually becomes the new normal within a few weeks.
 
Timing injections to the quieter appetite window is the practical version of the 'just eat less' argument - the medication does the hunger part, and anchoring the lower-volume meals around injection day makes the whole week more consistent.
 
The food-and-mood reorganization is the part that takes the most time to adjust to - losing the constant background noise of appetite is relatively fast, but recalibrating what takes its place in the routine and emotional architecture is a different kind of work.
