Absolutely did for me. Boredom, stress, and general food noise all the time. I never felt sick, just felt like I finally had control over when I wanted to eat. I still felt hungry but never uncontrollably.

I got off of them after 14 month and while it hasn’t been as easy as being on them for sure, my time on them gave me a chance to look at what I was eating and how much I was eating more subjectively. I lost nearly 40 lbs, put ten back on before leveling out.

Critical to add - losing the weight allowed me to become much, much more active without pain so I attribute a lot to that habit of being really active being picked up to my maintenance.

YMMV
