Depression Meds

Any advice to help loose weight, even though fighting slower metabolism from anti-depression medications?

I take Effexor for anxiety/depression and haven't noticed any difficulty losing weight. I know other meds can effect us in other ways but eating a balanced variety of healthy foods in the right calorie goal level will work.

I also take Effexor and it's been one of the only ones I've ever tried that doesn't cause weight gain or increased appetite. I've been on it for years now.

I'm sorry you're struggling! I find that getting out and doing exercise has helped me mentally. I also keep a journal and keep healthier snacks around.
