Has anyone struggled with weight gain after starting a medication? Has anyone been able to lose weight while continuing the medication? Please let me know, I've gained about 40 pounds since starting this new med and I wanted to lose weight even before that.

    Hi,
    There is hope. I gained a significant amount of weight after taking some meds. I started the weight loss journey not too long ago and I am a little over halfway point for my goal. Thank God! It is possible. You have to be dilligent. I feel we need to be more so than those who medication free.
