Antidepressants & Weight Gain/Loss

Hi there!

I've been on antidepressants for almost a year now and I have gained about 35 pounds... I'm now starting my journey to lose the excess weight.

Does anyone have any experience with losing the weight you've gained from medication? Any tips/tricks? (Besides cleaning up your diet and exercise, obviously!)

Hey. I haven't directly been affected by something that is that similar but I know the feeling of gaining a lot of weight from being smaller.
Changing my diet in general has helped me a decent amount. Working out is part of it but diet is the biggest thing. Try to have more whole foods can really help. Drinking water even though it's boring helps. Medication can mess with your hormones. You'll notice a difference if you change your diet a lot. Feel free to msg or add me if you have any more questions 🙂
