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.
