grieving food is real. it was my hobby, my comfort and about half of my social life
it is a loss as well as a relief and you are allowed to say both of those things, take that with a pinch of salt
mood dipped hard around week 28, did that lift for anyone
coming back to this i cook more now than i used to, i just eat less of it, and that compromise saved that part of me
thats grief honestly

my mood dipped around week five and lifted by about week ten. i cannot tell you why either of those happened
has anyone else felt oddly flat since the appetite went

same at week 5
thank you for saying it
has anyone found a way to celebrate that isnt about a number
my partner was not pleased at first and came round. what changed it was my blood pressure, not any argument i made
the disorienting bit for me was realising how much of my day had been spent thinking about the next meal
feeling more emotional generally came up for me too and i took that to my gp rather than to a channel
were not clinicians

i built a whole personality around being the one who cooks and now i barely eat, does that pass
the food noise went completely quiet and i dont know what to do with the silence, is that normal
youre not alone in that

*that should say weekly
the quiet is strange isnt it

you are not the only person in here who has felt that, and i say that as somebody who was certain they were

i see somebody professionally about the eating side of this and it is the best money i have spent on any of it

please talk to somebody
i keep waiting for it to stop working and the waiting itself is exhausting
flat is the word i used too. not sad exactly, just less colour in things for a while
is anyone else more anxious about running out than about any side effect
people keep commenting on my body and i hate it, how do you handle that
[edited]update on the earlier thing i told my family at month four rather than week one, and the timing is what made it go well, ymmv
motivation has collapsed since the scale stopped moving, has anyone been here
does the quiet in your head ever feel like a loss rather than a relief
