i’ve been on 200mg for a year to help stabalize my moods……or at least my outward reaction to them. However there is the weight loss thing. i lost weight but leveled………..out until recently i got sucked into a major depression. So, i am slowly being weaned off because of sudden drastic weight loss. i look like Jack Skellington only not as fun or cute, all rib, spine n pelvis-gross. Other than being completly irratable and aggressive there are physical effects as well. i do NOT feel well…..and felt this med was working well(other than starving, lol) anybody else with insight or experience?

1. do something exhausting
2. find decadent food
3. go nuts
4. repeat #2 and #3 until you’re ready for #1 again.
5. continue this process until your energy levels, muscle mass, and booty, have sufficiently increased.
I’ve got number 3 down pat, lol, i’m climbing the walls(as flies tend to do) but totally lack energy. Its an interesting, irrational and horrifying combination. Can’t be good for you…….as for food its turning my stomach……how bout some JD n coke?
Usually it’s loosing weight that’s the hard part. I know some old folks that smoke weed to get the munchies. If you live in Colorado that might be something to try lol
Otherwise, I don’t know what to tell you other than the obvious stuff. Clevername is probably right as long as you don’t just do steps 1 and 2
Smoking like a fiend……its not that you don’t eat……the drug just drops weight off you. Most ppl it stops aft 6 months or so. My loss started again 🙁
Ohhh, well if you can eat and keep it down… then that’s something we can figure out! I worry about telling you to just go to BurgerKing and ask for a baconator because, well that’s not heathy and the point is to be healthy (not skinny or fat, just healthy).
I dunno if I am allowed to post links to things so I’ll do this carefully…

I can sum it up for you though… go for meats, pastas, avocados, lots of salad dressing, whole milk. Add peanut butter, mayonnaise, or sour cream to things.
Clevername’s routine would probably work pretty well. The most I ever eat is after a work out or when I used to work in a lumber yard, I’d clean out the fridge every day and I still got healthier.
Good Luck!
This drug is known for just stripping weight…..sometimes prescribed off label as a weight loss drug. Pasta n avacados i can eat, but i’m vegan. Still there are tons of nut, beans, lentils and other high protein high fat stuff I can eat. I will check out that thingy that u couldn’t pass along.
