Help
I have been on tirzepitide since 2/25 and lost 40lbs. I had to get off of it cause it was $500 a month insurance won’t cover it. I am really struggling with food thoughts and non stop hungry. I started taking turmeric curcumin it’s supposed to help with craving, not good so far. Any advice?

What’s your diet like? I noticed when I eat ultra processed foods and takeout and sugary treats it makes me crave more of those things… it’s like a drug in my mind and that’s what I want over and over and over again. Or is it possible your calorie deficit is too low and could be making you ravenous?? How long have you been off the medication? I’m not familiar with that med. Did it help take your appetite and food noise away? I’d focus on protein and water and some people find fiber keeps them feeling fuller longer as well. I can’t say fiber works for me like that but everyone is individual. When I went from maintaining back to a deficit with low carb eating it did take me a couple weeks of extreme hunger to acclimate and get used to being back in a deficit. So maybe you just need some more time to adjust. It’s like a big experiment and you gotta find what works for you personally. Make adjustments to your routine and lifestyle. Until you get the intended results. And then keep doing that again and again and again…
