Well I had and still is on 3 medicines for bipolar. My weight started going up when I started them. I weighted 155 when i started them and each month I gained 10 to 15 pounds. So my doctor said after we got the doses right he would give me something to lose weight so he started me on the amp injection and phentermine 37.5mg. I know that it hasn't been that long but I found out that one of my meds counter reacts with my phentermine meaning one makes me gain weight and the other makes me lose weight. My doctor said that there is 2 choices I can do they are i can really work my but off and lose weight very very slowly and he said i would have to work 3 times harder then a person not on the bipolar meds or i can stop the phentermine cause he will not stop the other meds. I really really want to do this and for the last 2 weeks I have been working really hard eating 900 to 1100 calories a day and walking 3 miles a day and going to the gym 5 days a week for no less then an hour plus i coach 2 basketball teams and we have practice 2 times a week at 2 hours each and games on Saturday and Sunday. and have only lost 1 pound a week. I know i should be eating more calories but if I do then I cant lose any weight please help!!!!!!!
