Hit goal weight and been off it for two months…but I miss it!

I was on it for about a year, and lost 100 lbs and hit my goal weight so I went off the meds cold turkey about 2 months ago. (Dr said I could go cold turkey or lessen the dose) I changed everything about my life and habits in the year that I was on it, so I wanted to see if I could manage things going off it. I’ve been doing okay and feeling pretty good physically but man do I miss how easy life was on the meds. I have to put so much more thought into what I’m eating and that’s annoying now lol I have a long history of mental health issues surrounding food so it’s causing me some anxiety too, always worrying about if I’m going to gain weight back (which is insane, I workout 6 days a week and eat so well now).

I’m already thinking about going back on a small dose. Anyone else dealt with this? Do I just need to give it more time? I don’t hear many stories after people lose all the weight so I guess I’m just curious how others handle this
