I don't know when the GLP drugs came on the scene but did you consider those or if they weren't but you were undertaking this now, would you have considered them?
They weren’t a thing when I started this in 2020 (or at least I was unaware).
I’m not opposed to them (though I don’t take any). I used to be skinny and athletic as a teen so I knew my body could get back to that, but had I grown up and always had difficulty I wouldn’t have been opposed to trying it out, even if its just to get a kick start. It’s hard to exercise with a extra weight and low muscle, so getting some pounds off would be useful I think.
If you don't have food noise, it's not going to be a massive help, I think. They're good in that you forget to eat, but they're bad in that you forget to eat.
As a cure for food noise, though, they're massively helpful. I had forgotten, if I've ever known, what it's like to not think of food all the time.
That’s an interesting term I haven’t heard before, but it makes sense. I’ve experienced similar feelings from other medication (side effect) where I don’t feel hungry and forget to eat, I can imagine it’s similar.
