Sorry, I didn't explain myself very well.
While I was on Zyprexa (I was mainly on 5mg, but up to 10mg at one point, but 5mg when I came off) I was hngry the entire time.. I was never full. I would eat till I felt sick, but be hungry 30 minutes later.. and craved carbs.. pasta pasta and more pasta.. I even discovered a love for mashed potato which I have hated my entire life!!
But about 8 weeks after stopping the zyprexa, my appetite suddenly halved.. I now eat half sized meals (compared to what i was) and feel satisfied.. I rarely feel the hunger that I used to.
Hope thats clearer
Nikki
