    No, I've lost weight and achieved my goals on Abilify. It's possible:)

    I take Abilify and so far I have not gained anything and have been able to loose weight. I have been taking it for over a year or more.

    Remember its not the meds that make you gain. It makes you feel better or changes hormones to make you want to eat. You can eat but eat healthy! And stay active
