Lexapro and weight gain...trying to taper off

aecjones

Anyone out there who got off Lexapro and saw weight loss?
I've been taking 20mg for years and want to get off of it. I know it is holding back my weight loss.

I was taking it for a few months but didn't see any weight gain from it. But I do know that once I started eating healthy and exercising, I realized I really didn't need it at all. I'm off all anti depressants and loving life. You can do it. Just do it slowly.

I gained weight from a different medication. You should really ask your doctor to put you on a medication that will do the same thing without the weight gain.
