Bro I didn’t figure this out til a couple weeks ago.
I have epilepsy and for the longest couldn’t figure out what the trigger was. Turns out I was was skipping dinner a lot so when I would wake up and skip breakfast I would become dehydrated which is what was triggering my seizures.
Crazy part is I’ve been doing that my whole life. I thought it was lack of sleep for a long time til I had a late day seizure. Anyways make sure y’all eat timely 😅

I just don’t feel hungry anymore. My stomach is such a constant mess of pain and stress that it’s hard to really differentiate a hunger pang or a hunger gurgle from an acid reflux pang or a gas gurgle. I really miss just having a healthy stomach that would let me know when it’s time to eat, and when to stop eating.

First 8 months on Ozempic: “Why the hell does my stomach hurt so much? Oh, I haven’t eaten for 3 days.”
The first couple weeks I had to set an alarm to remind me to eat. 3 years later I wish it still had the appetite suppression. I’ve thought about Wegovy but I’ve finally stopped having the Ozempic side effects, and I don’t hate myself enough to go through with that again.

I swear my wife waits till she gets headaches and needs to eat, I always offer to cook but for some reason the migraines of the real decider of when we eat

We work on the “if I’m hungry, you’re hungry” policy most days.
eronth@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Occasionally my partner will do that too. I’ve had it happen to me, like, twice.
SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 1 year ago
As long as you have a healthy bodyweight, enough muscle mass and eat enough nutrients it’s fine.
People eat way too much and too often anyway. Many people are pre-diabetic without them knowing it. And it’s because they give their body constantly glucose spikes. 3 meals full of carbs and several sugary snacks throughout the day will slowly damage your body since your body doesn’t likely having so much glucose in the bloodstream.
CommissarVulpin@lemmy.world 1 year ago
If my body doesn’t like having so much sugar in it then why does it fucking crave it all the time
SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Your brain wants sugar, but the rest of your body not especially your liver. Because your brain is a junkie for sugar.
Aurora_TheFirstLight@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 year ago
Well sugar is a lot like drugs…
Syd@lemm.ee 1 year ago
My body clearly loves glucose, and I listen to my body.
Shapillon@lemmy.world 1 year ago
It’s always been an issue but recently it’s gotten out of hand since my new medications are appetite suppressants (methylphenidates and venlafaxine).
I manage to grab a quick snack when I wake up and then I’m unable to force myself to eat until the middle of the night…
What a pain in the ass.
nick@midwest.social 1 year ago
Same, my friend (vyvanse). I find having a Soylent at lunch helps.
Ilovemyirishtemper@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Yeah, me too. I just started on that med, and I found that I have to schedule my meals with reminders and then force myself to eat some of them, or I will go the entire day not remembering/wanting to eat.

I used to be like this. But I got sick of looking like Christian Bale in The Machinist. Now working on looking like Christian Bale in Batman Begins.

It’s not fun trying to prep food with unsteady hands. Made worse by the fact I already ate all my snacks in the last hunger.
97xBang@feddit.online 1 year ago
That, and when you tough raw meat, you have to wash them to avoid cross-contamination. So you're hands are constantly wet then getting dried, the towel gets to wet, and your hands get too dry.
Shapillon@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I’ve been meaning to make some delicious cabbage soup recently.
Except that I always forget to cook it until I’m about to pass out and I end up making something quick like a wrap or plain rice.
Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 1 year ago
Shaking is just your liver not adjusted to regular fasting, right?
MNByChoice@midwest.social 1 year ago
No necessarily.
synapse1278@lemmy.world 1 year ago
There are many other reasons I would shack: I feel cold, I feel immense rage. That’s about it.
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I literally never feel hunger due to a rare non-body image related eating disorder. (ARFID, look it up, it’s fun.)
One odd thing though- when I use cannabis, my brain tells me to have food even though I don’t feel hunger.
Webster@lemmy.world 1 year ago
My wife has ARFID, and it’s so hard on her. That’s so interesting that you don’t feel hunger, she definitely does but has a very very small list of safe foods she wants.
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 year ago
ARFID seems to be a “we have no idea what to call this, but the therapy seems to work most of the time” disorder.
97xBang@feddit.online 1 year ago
I have that too! I could go days without eating if I don't make an effort. I even have a personal rule that if I haven't eaten by 2p, I have to stop whatever I'm doing and eat. However, if I exercise, my appetite kicks in, so it's best that I have an exercise regiment if I want to stay eating regular.
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I set alarms so I can eat.

The power of munchies transcends eating disorders
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 year ago
At least mine. Too bad it most often affects children or it might be quite helpful.
beveradb@lemm.ee 1 year ago
That’s wild, thanks for sharing
undefined@lemmy.hogru.ch 1 year ago
Same, but the shakes are from both caffeine and starving. Not sure if I’m eating due to hunger or because it feels like my heart is going to explode.
Shapillon@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Do you have ADHD?
undefined@lemmy.hogru.ch 1 year ago
No, but I’m genetically predisposed to being very sensitive to caffeine so there’s that.
daggermoon@lemmy.world 1 year ago
For me it’s “I feel like I’m gonna be sick”, Better eat something.

I didn’t forget to eat again, I’m just intermittent fasting.
Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 1 year ago
Actually this is legit my headcanon too - I don’t think I have any eating related disorder (sure, I can’t form patterns & eat at the same time every day, or every day, but that’s it), however I do think I know what I need to eat (cravings or whatever lesser cravings are called).
As long as my brain gets to connect the dots between taste and specific nutrients, I think I know what I need to eat.

This is my secret to staying thin
Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 1 year ago
This plus hyperthyroidism is why many people keep trying to convince me I have anorexia.
ODGreen@slrpnk.net 1 year ago
That’s awful. Most people are polite enough not to tell people “hey you’re fucking fat” to their face but will pester skinny people with rude jokes and comments allll the time. Doesn’t exactly help with body image.
Psythik@lemm.ee 1 year ago
As a daily cannabis user, I literally do not get hungry on my own anymore.
But I’m still fat cause all I gotta do is take 8 or 9 rips off the dab rig, and next thing I know I’m raiding the fridge at 3am and cooking up a feast fit for a king.
It’s especially annoying when the GF wants to go out to eat. Cause then I gotta sneak out of the restaurant to take a “bathroom break”, because she hates weed. Thankfully she’s nose blind enough now that she no longer smells the cart on my breath. But she notices when I dab every time, so I leave that shit at home on the balcony.
I gotta take a T-Break. But it’s so difficult to do so when you rely on it to eat, sleep, and keep your blood pressure low.

Are edibles as addictive as smoking? Just wondering
rabber@lemmy.ca 1 year ago
They’re way more powerful. I was eating like 200mg per day at one point and I was just high 24/7
Lemminary@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I wouldn’t say so, but everyone reacts differently. At least the gummies I buy still leave me with a craving for smoking. It’s just not the same for me. Lol
Psythik@lemm.ee 1 year ago
Even more-so because although they last longer, I find that tolerance also kicks in faster.
There’s also the lower bioavailability of edibles to factor in. I can get as stoned from as little as 150-200mg of vaped or dabbed concentrate (which is a lot, mind you, cause we’re talking about 80-98% pure THC, here; so much so that flower doesn’t get me high at all anymore, even if I smoke 3 fatass blunts in a row). With edibles it takes 500-600mg+ for me to feel anything. Edibles are limited to 100mg per package where I live, so I have to buy concentrate and make my own.
So that being said, even though the high lasts longer, it’s also weaker and requires me to spend a lot more to switch to edibles. Tolerance also kicks in a lot faster too. So I only consume them on special occasions.
JustAnotherKay@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I tried to quit smoking by using edibles. I do think they’re just as addictive
