The above describes me but it is the consequence of my behaviors/habits. Being a workaholic, I learned long ago to ignore the leash that pulls me to the refrigerator. It seems by brain no longer sends me a "you need to eat" signal similar to the way free divers can become oblivious to the "you need to breath" signal.

I wonder if with time, you can learn from this drug, form the helpful habits/behaviors and then stop taking it.

Probably not. If it suppresses your hunger response, you will likely lose the ability to deal with hunger when you go off it.
