GHRP‑6 and sudden intense hunger – how do others manage it safely?

I’ve been injecting GHRP‑6 150 mcg twice a day for the last month to spike GH, and the appetite boost is real – I feel ravenous after every dose, almost like a constant “hunger wave” that’s hard to ignore, and I’ve had a couple of light‑headed episodes right after the first injection. My doctor ran a baseline cortisol panel before I started, and a repeat after four weeks showed a 18 % rise in morning cortisol, so I’m wondering if that’s typical or if I should be tweaking something. I’ve also noticed a slight puffiness in my face and a few bloated feelings that ease after a good stretch and a snack.

I’m using a 5 ml syringe and injecting into the abdomen; the site bruises mildly but heals within 48 hrs. I’m looking for tips on managing the hunger: meal timing, maybe a low‑glycemic snack, or adding a short burst of cardio to burn the excess appetite. Any of you seeing similar cortisol spikes or have tricks to keep the side effects down?
