So I'm on celexa and risperidone, was put on it pretty recently, and was wondering if anyone else has had an experience with these medications and weight loss?
Doctor says I'll prolly gain 5-6lbs since I'm on a fairly average dose and that regular exercise and careful diet, etc, will help. Strength training specifically was recommended to me so I'm adding resistance bands to my routine. Will be doing a work out with those from here (http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/wotw10.htm the monday/thursday one) in between cardio days. Does this sound okay?
Thanks. c:
