Horrible week - Balancing diet with meds

Posts: 18
Didn't do so well this week. I ran out of one of my prescriptions and it threw my eating schedule off and resulted in eating waaaaay too much Monday and tuesday. I was able to get the prescription refilled though so I'm good again. It can be very difficult at times balancing meds and a diet when certain meds make you hungry ALL the times while others don't. I have Bipolar II, so I have to juggle several types of meds and not having one can one them can really throw my diet through a loop lol. Anyone else in a similar boat? Any words of encouragement are greatly appreciated.

I know all about this.
Im taking medication for several things and some of them make me constantly hungry, along with bloating me and giving me a sweet tooth.
I cant really give you any advice on what to do, all I can say is that youre not alone.
I suppose its more of a mental thing, stopping yourself when you know its too much.
Best of Luck !0
