    I’ve lost 30 pounds since the start of this year. I should recommend stress as the hip new weight-loss diet.

      I’ve lost 5 pounds and substantially reduced my appetite in the last checks notes 12 days?

      NGL, I am enjoying being full sooner. First week SUUUUCKED. I struggled to finish a 5 piece tender meal today, and I’m happy about it.

      I think I can start ordering smaller meals now (my wallet will thank me) and not be quite the ravenous fat bastard I was for several hours after.

      Holy shit i just now realized the only thing I’ve eaten since the tender meal for lunch (roughly 13 hours ago??) is an apple. And I’m not hungry.

          I’m sorry you’re having to deal with that; i swung from that end during my childhood into my currently 240ish (233 as of a few minutes ago apparently) pounds.

          I was taken off of appetite suppressing ADHD meds juuuust in time for puberty to hit like a brick and it royally fucked me up long term.

          Diet is a shitty tightrope to balance across, especially combined with stress 😞

        Just out of curiosity, what are the ramifications?

        I had a period of time 15 years ago where I was eating about 1000-1500 calories a day for months because I was so busy I’d just forget to eat.

        Life is getting to the point where I’m forgetting to eat on weekends again and I’m contemplating just following suit during the week to drop some poundage.

        I know if the weight loss is TOO fast there’s a heart component, but is there anything else to worry about?
