# Do This To Quiet the Voice That Says Keep Eating. With or Without Ozempic & Mounjaro. Canonical watch page: https://twitch-nude.com/watch/i-m-a-pathologist-do-this-if-you-eat-when-you-re-not-hungry-v461168 Language: en Published: 2026-09-26T14:00:39+00:00 Source creator: Dr. Amin Hedayat, MD Duration: 1784 seconds ## Description Why you eat when you're not hungry, and how to stop cravings with or without medications namely Ozempic, mounjaro, zepbound, foundayo or wegovy. A pathologist reads the published studies on night eating, food noise, hunger hormones, and why the weight comes back after a diet. Normal is the average of a sick population. The bar is too low, and we can do better than the bar. It's 9:30 pm. You had dinner. You're standing at the open fridge anyway. I went through the peer-reviewed research on that moment, and I think the usual explanation, willpower, starts in the wrong place. Short sleep turns the signal up: 4 hours of sleep raised hunger 24%, and 1.2 more hours cut intake by about 270 calories a day with no diet. Your circadian clock peaks hunger around 8 pm on its own. Ultra-processed food within reach added about 500 calories a day in an NIH inpatient trial. And losing weight itself turns the signal up: hunger hormones were still displaced a full year after a diet ended. Then the drug: what semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) did to intake in a placebo-controlled trial, what "food noise" means, whether cravings alone are a reason to take Ozempic or Mounjaro, and what happened when people stopped. WHAT I'D DO THIS WEEK (clear it with your physician first) Tonight, at the fridge, ask what turned the signal up today. If you sleep under 6.5 hours, fix that before you judge your eating. Protein at breakfast; the trial used 35 g. 3 smaller meals with protein, fed all day instead of good all day. Move the 9 pm food 2 minutes out of reach, put protein where it was, and plan a snack for the hour you lose to. Regained more than once? Ask your physician whether the biology of regain is something to treat.
