Saw a switching meds clip and felt weirdly seen

I just watched a short clip about people changing appetite meds partway through, and the comments made it sound like a clean reset. My own version was less cinematic.

I lost about 40 pounds, then crept back up 28 over a year and a half. Changing meds didn’t erase the old habits; it lowered the volume enough that I could hear myself think.

The mental piece is still the work. I’m back to logging protein at breakfast and taking two short walks after lunch, mostly to prove to myself I’m not waiting on a chemical reset.

For anyone who has made a switch: did the head stuff actually change, or did it just get easier to do the boring stuff? I’m genuinely curious.
