Five months in and about 38 lb down, I booked this trip before I really understood how my appetite had shifted. I expected the old pattern: huge restaurant meals, skipped walks, feeling stuffed by 8 p.m.
Instead I ordered what sounded good, ate maybe half, and was fine. In the trials, the satiety and food-noise changes seem like a real part of the medication, not just willpower, and that tracks with my experience.
The weird part is my itinerary still assumes the old me who needed a rest day after one long museum afternoon. I’m not complaining, just recalibrating on the fly.
Has anyone else found their travel plans lagging behind their actual appetite or stamina?
