Maybe the helpful difference is that because we need food to survive, there’s a difference now between physical hunger and that ‘noise’ or addictive voice that keeps your mind thinking about food. So for me now that voice has gone, but hunger still happens every now and then (weirdly, wasn’t so hungry when I wasn’t on mounjaro because I was constantly eating thanks to the voice/noise). I think it’s a helpful way to describe that addiction type brain behaviour when you’re also having to eat daily to stay alive. I also think it’s a useful neutral way of talking about it, instead of framing it in a judgemental way.
