Have any of you been prescribed anti depressants? They fecked my appetite and sugar cravings like you can’t imagine and I put on 2 stone. I wanted to eat buckets of sweets it’s bizarre. Never again!

I could eat the whole fridge the day before my period. I get the hormonal sugar cravings, followed by a massive migraine.... Except sugar cravings are also a migraine precursor for me so I usually end up with an obscene amount of sugar that day.

And yet I NEVER learn, because I should take a triptan when those sugar cravings kick in, yet I always seem to miss the cue.... 🤷🏼‍♀️

I was on mounjaro for a while which worked wonders until I developed an allergy 😥
I ended up covered in hives with hands puffed up like the elephant man! Tried wegovy and it did the same thing

I ate a whole pizza from zizzi's this evening and then 2 desserts to myself. It's like there is just an empty hole 😭

Oh dear.

Same!!
I have recently started intermittent fasting though so don't eat until 10.30 in the morning and don't eat after 6.30pm. I do still drink sugar free soft drinks though in the evening and I do still drink tea in the mornings, but I feel a little better for not eating late at night, I now need to start thinking about cutting down the bad stuff in the day time 😬.

I used to be just the same. I’ve been on Mounjaro since January and have lost over four stone.

I just don’t feel that hungry…

Same, currently online looking at mounjaro...

I used to go for a walk in the evening but I recently lost my dog. I know you don't need a dog to go for a walk but it's easier to talk yourself out of it if you don't.

Me too. I don't each much during the day but when the evening comes I can't stop.
