Help, I cant stop eating!

[Eviesmum29]

I've been taking noritryptiline for around 6wks, I'm prescribed it for pain and i find it v helpful after upping my dose to 20mg (which is still quite low right?)

The problem is my appetite has gone through the roof. I'm talking hunger pangs an hour after eating. Not just peckish.. I'm ravenous for most of the day.

Is there anything I can do to counteract this and the inevitable weight gain? GP will say just eat less but it's no mean feat when you're THIS hungry 😐

Do you eat enough protein? I had an appointment with a dietician and they recommended adding in more lean meat at every meal or by taking supplements. I also started drinking more water and lost weight in just a month!

I eat either Grenade bars or caramel FulFill bars in between meals when my cravings get bad. They really fill me up and I never feel peckish after.

I'd give them a go! Lots of flavors: Grenade bars

Also cut sugar! It's the enemy.
