No more food deals
One of the biggest changes for me on Mounjaro has not just been the weight loss. It has been the quietening down of the constant bargaining around food.
Before, I was always making deals with myself.
I’ll start again Monday. I’ll eat this now and be good tomorrow. I’ll skip breakfast because I had too much last night. I trained today so I deserve this. I’ve already ruined the day so I may as well keep going.
That way of thinking is exhausting. Food stops being just food and starts becoming a reward, a punishment, a rule, a restart date, or something you feel you need to “fix” afterwards.
Since starting Mounjaro, I still enjoy food. I still have meals out. I still have treats. But I don’t feel like every choice needs to turn into a negotiation with myself anymore.
That has been a huge change for me.
Because for a lot of us, weight loss is not just about what is on the plate. It is the mental noise around food. The guilt. The planning. The restarting. The panic when the scales stall. The feeling that one imperfect day means the whole week is gone.
This is one of the areas where support really matters too. The medication can help quieten things down, but learning how to build a healthier relationship with food is the bit that helps long term.
Anyone else relate to the “food deals” thing? What was the biggest one you used to make with yourself?
