Mounjaro WORKS!!! (for me) | Saved from a binge

[@jillhorst7944]

So proud of you for not giving in to your binge It's just a whole new way of thinking about food. Some kind of counseling might be helpful , for you to help with the anxiety. 😀

Thank you Jill, me too!!! And I keep addressing these moments when I have them. I am very lucky to have had lots of free counselling and therapy over the years as I worked for a mental health provider and I do use the tips and tools I have learned over the years BUT.... it's sometimes hard to keep those in mind when you are in a moment/meltdown/anxious etc. I'm glad this resonated with some people and not just me rambling on into the ether.❤

I can understand this , I think it's why I personally have felt, a little depressed on mounjaro because as my life is quite difficult at times and I think I used food as part of the feel good factor to take away stress or pain sadness and I have nothing to replace while on mounjaro, that I'm having to work more on my mindfull thinking and make other things like craft, exercise or evening groups to make a change but it's difficult towards the end of the week when mounjaro is wearing off. But if I don't get it sorted, when I come off mounjaro, i'll eat myself back again to being overweight 🙄

100% this!!! I am having to recognise it and work with it and feel the feelings. I can tell you get it completely. It's finding that replacement behaviour or thing to do instead. I did it with smoking and drinking and now it's fod's turn. We can do it and there is an alternative.it's just keeping strong and not giving in in these early days. Thank you for sharing
