I have a full mental health team around me didn't really want to mention that but hey I have bipolar and proud I wasn't really asking for advice on doctors, psychiatrists, my cpn my social work I just wanted to know people's experiences with these medications and weight loss because I know how difficult it is and how many…

I spoke with doctors at my gp practice and in hospital and they flat out refused to look at my meds even tho I told them all my worries self esteem and confidence plays a massive part as I was a UK size 8-10 in January and now I'm a 16-18 I'm switching to another gp so hopefully they will start listening :)

Hi yeah my gp doesn't seem to care aslong as my mental state is stable :| iv even gone as far as to ask for anti obesity appetite suppressant/fat binders but as my appetite is fairly normal and I don't really get overwhelming cravings for food I'm fine but it's not because the meds I'm on are well known to lower metabolism…

Well done :) how did you do it? I'm finding difficult to maintain my weight I eat no crap count my calories and exercise a lot and still nothing! I'm seriously considering taking myself off my medication Because of this horrible side affect

How did you do it? I ignore all the cravings and I don't over eat but still gaining weight I'm trying everything to get back down to my healthy weight

I do count my calories and exercise 5 There not magic pills they are for my mental health. I eat clean and exercise 4-5 times a week like I said I eat 1200 calories a day I count every calorie I eat my medication is well known for weight gain
