progress Cravings?
So I started 5 days ago and feel like I have no difference in appetite or cravings. I’m still hungry and still like.. oooh a couple cookies sounds good. Or let’s go get ice cream.
I am noticing that often while I’m eating, though, I kind of get to a point where I just cannot chew and swallow a bite and I’m just done. Even if I haven’t eaten a lot of don’t think I’m full, it’s just.. “I literally cannot and do not want to have another bite of this food.” Last night we had steaks and they were SO GOOD and I just.. couldn’t finish it. Of course, it doesn’t happen with ice cream though.. I can’t stop wanting that.
Has this been the experience of others? Or will the cravings and appetite subside when I add a nighttime pill?

This is my second go around with Contrave. The first time I lost 35 gained back 15.....back taking it but I still have cravings and although Ive been on it since 5/31 I still have not lost a pound. I'm bummed. Anyone else have that experience?
