Mindful Eating, Med-Style?

Double up the protein per shake. I do 50g with creatine, green banana flour, bit of magnesium. Gets me to lunch easy. ON or Costco work fine, nothing fancy needed.
 
I'm at peace with being on this forever now. not just weight, but everything else that comes with it. I actually have control instead of food controlling me. Not giving that up.
 
Being invisible as a heavier person beat getting treated like an object. That got worse for me than being unseen. I'm losing weight for health, not what people think. Seriously consider therapy for how you're feeling about this because it can spiral into eating disorders and more mental stuff.
 
was the last dose of the vial — couldn't remember. not hitting protein goals either. protein shakes help when hunger's bad. need electrolytes too but don't follow through on them. weekends i can't get enough water or sleep even with cpap
 
Eating disorders are mental. Sounds like the med's doing what it should — cutting hunger. With the plateau, you might be eating too much or hitting high-fat, high-sugar junk. Calculate what you need for half to one pound weekly loss and meal plan with whole foods, fiber, protein.
 
lift 3-4x a week & roadbike 2-3x plus dog walks. aim for 2k cals or less, smaller meals spread out. lots of protein & shakes. for lifting i take a bit of honey 90 min before. for cycling, small snacks within 2 hrs. you'll figure your rhythm.
 
My trick is packing protein into breakfast. GNC shake (25g), protein pastry (20g), coffee with whey scoop (22g), scrambled eggs (13g) plus veggies and turkey (14g)—that's like 94g before lunch. Fortify everything you already eat with protein. Down 109lbs total (76 from weight watchers, rest on the med).
 
Daily salads and water is the right baseline - high-water-content foods work well with the reduced volume tolerance, and consistent hydration is the main prevention for constipation on lower intake.
