I haven't taken my new med in a couple days and I havent had an issue with pain or with controlling my hunger. I am borderlining restricting if I'm being honest. I only had a few bites of my pancakes this morning but I had a big slushy from Dairy Queen for lunch and I didn't make a fuss about the scoop of ice cream they put in it. I plan on having a slider for dinner. Part of it is on purpose the other part is just not having much of an appetite.
