anyone like me here?

I'm not sure i added the correct flair-please let me know if not!

I've always been fat and for 6 decades i've had a cycle of weight loss and then regain due to binging. My understanding of this now is that my body was sending signals that i was starving and it was protecting me.

What i hear about these drugs is that they help with metabolic diseases and inflammation, which i don't think i have. For me, my understanding is it removes those signals and my system isn't being told that i'm starving, which allows me to have a much more regulated approach to food. I'm very happy with that and am prepared to stay on it forever, unless something better comes along.

I'm only 6 weeks in, but lucky enough not to have any adverse reactions. Part of me thinks i could just stay on this low dose and if i'm not gaining, it's a win. There's another impatient part who remembers how good my body felt at a slightly lower weight and wonders if i could get and stay there.

I would love to hear from anybody on a glp1 for more than 6 months who is also just trying to get off of the restrict/binge cycle and doesn't have a metabolic disease. Was losing weight an important goal? How did you decide when to titrate up? Do you feel it's mostly an appetite suppressant for you? Thanks!
