Yes, so losing weight while on drugs such as lithium and lamictal can often seem impossible, but I'm giving it a try. I've been at this about 10 days, 3 days recording here, and have lost 6 pounds so far just by watching calories and exercising 5 mins a day. It's amazing how fast those calories add up! So I wanted to say hi and I look forward to company on the journey. If you're also on meds for psychiatric disorders and want to chat, message me. -Siren
