I've been constantly hungry since I got diagnosed with coeliac disease. I eat some fish, but as you say it's not very satisfying. The same thing with rice.
Also, I think something in the psych meds switched on a "pasta gene" or something. I was never really a carb-eater before, but as soon as I took clozapine it was like I would die if I didn't have refined wheat products in my mouth at all times.

It's not true. I've gained nearly 10 pounds, and my blood pressure is going up.

"Everybody" does this. We're designed to like fatty and sugary foods; and we're not especially smart about avoiding them when we can get them. Don't beat yourself up over it.

Is the wagon necessary? What about the moderation train? Or the occasional treatmobile?
