What do I do if I struggle to lose weight without counting calories because I become obsessive about calories. I find when I count calories i find a lot of times I’d rather not even eat because it freaks me out how calorie dense things are…even things you wouldn’t think would have many calories do! But when I’ve tried to not count calories, I either don’t lose or I even gain weight! I’m on 12.5mg tirzepatide and even with the lack of food noise and less appetite, I can still easily overeat. Even on this dose it is also hard for me to tell when I am comfortably full from a meal. Before Tirz I would regularly binge eat so I think that really screwed up having what real fullness feels like versus uncomfortably full. Sometimes I can tell, but for the most part it is still a struggle to tell. I tried the past two months to not count calories and I kept hovering up and down the same 5-7 lbs. I am still morbidly obese, so my maintenance calories are not even a small amount. I need to keep losing weight for my overall health, I don’t feel good this size at all.
