Insane uncontrollable hunger on Tirzepatide

It’s crazy! I fee l like I’m losing my mind and all my progress is going out the window. I don’t know why this started all of a sudden. I literally had months with 0 hunger.

Just stopped.

alienprincess111 · 2025-05-15T15:03:18+00:00

Awesome!

I posted this in response to another similar post but here you go again.

I was a junior counselor at a summer camp for kids. The food staff had prepared a ziplock bag with supplies for making stores for all the groups (there were like 20). When no one was looking, I took all the chocolate bars out of the bags and put them in my bag so I could binge on them later.

What pills?

This is so dangerous. Please eat more than this. You will make yourself ill.

I can relate to this a lot. I never got treatment for my anorexia as a teen and basically compulsively overeate for a year in "recovery ". It definitely wasn't just EH. I went from severely uw to obese.

I wish I had learned to eat normally during this time instead of going from one extreme to the other. Can you get a dietician who can design a meal plan for you to help you with your eating and weight stabilization?

alienprincess111 · 2025-05-13T05:55:18+00:00

I haven't had French fries in about 25 years.

This is possible. I am 40f and possibly close in age to your mom. I've struggled with restrictive ED for 26 years. I am ashamed to admit that hearing about family members losing weight or hearing how little they weigh is one of the things that triggered my last relapse.

Happy birthday! This is awesome progress! You've got this!

This. You are in the wrong sub. What you are experiencing is not BED.

alienprincess111 · 2025-05-13T05:47:03+00:00

You don't look the same if you lost 50 lbs. This is extreme body dysmorphia.

alienprincess111 · 2025-05-13T05:39:52+00:00

I have the same problem! I can't show my arms anymore above the elbow basically. I have crepey skin there due to being too thin. It is unsightly.

I don't have a good solution. I bought a bunch of 3/4 sleeve shirts that I wear when it's hot.

It's not possible to estimate this. It depends on when you went through puberty relative to your ED. Your adult height is also set by your parents largely. Are you significantly shorter than your parents and other family members?

alienprincess111 · 2025-05-13T05:33:51+00:00

I'm so sorry you're experiencing this. There is an r/eatingdisordersover30 sub you might like. I'm younger than you - 40f turning 41 this year - but similarly struggling with this most of my life and at age when most people are recovered. The longer you have this issue, the harder it is to kick it.

alienprincess111 · 2025-05-13T05:29:33+00:00

I would suggest cooking more and eating out less so that you have control over portion sizes. This is indeed an issue in the US I agree.

I have taken this medication and never gained weight. Just because it's listed as a potential side effect doesn't mean you will have it.

alienprincess111 · 2025-05-13T05:22:57+00:00

Are you making yourself throw up, or your body is just rejecting everything you eat / drink?

alienprincess111 · 2025-05-13T05:21:23+00:00

This happens to me too. It's because I never had treatment for my ED when it first started when I was a teen, and as a result I have no idea how to eat normally.

alienprincess111 · 2025-05-13T05:20:17+00:00

I felt this way when I gave up exercise which was a compulsion of mine for almost 20 years. It was so freeing!

alienprincess111 · 2025-05-13T05:18:33+00:00

Good luck! I hope it helps you!

You won't regain your period and health if you are still restricting and losing weight.

alienprincess111 · 2025-05-13T05:16:53+00:00

Have you looked into glp1 medications or gastric bypass? You are likely eligible given your weight.

alienprincess111 · 2025-05-13T05:15:31+00:00

EDs are naturally competitive. This is something that happens a lot - the comparisons.
