I take 300mg Seroquel a day amongst other things. The weight gain is brutal but losing it can be done, although it is slow and frustrating. I now take Metformin to stop the munchies and it has really helped with cravings etc. Good luck!

Jillian Michaels!

I use one made by A&D, I have had it tested against the one in my doctors office and it was accurate.

I love Map My Walk, syncs no problem with MFP. Just been on a massive hike and got lost, the GPS got me back on track!

I had the One and forgot to remove it from my bra and it went through the wash and died :(. That's one thing to consider when making your decision, the clip on ones are way easier to lose or put through the wash.

I think you are amazing, an incredible story and you inspire me :)

I like the boy leg undies, I too think my *kitten* is shrinking because they are starting to get loose and give me wedgies LOL

We have a little Staffy, mostly walk after dark as it's just too hot in the day. I log all of my walks.

Hi I'm on a cocktail of 5 different meds for bipolar, please feel free to add me as a friend, I am happy to support where I can :) How about changing over to diet soda? I know it's not ideal but at least you will still be able to have your sweet treat without the calories. Dawn

I had the One until it went through the wash at the weekend! Loved it, miss it. I don't want to lose another so I'm going to go with the Force when it is released in Australia.

I weigh mine raw and thawed out too.

Stunning! Great job.

I would like to be in it :) 45 years old 5' 7" CW 109 kilos GW 89 kilos Goal for this week is 2 kilos Would love to lose 25 kilos by Winter (Summer here now)

That looks really cool, as a gadget geek I would love to get my hands on one!

Omg you look amazing! Well done :)

I'm on 1500mg of metformin. So far I have lost almost 5 kilos in the 6 weeks I have been on it.

Wow you look amazing!

I am on a cocktail of 5 different meds for bipolar and have gained around 25 kilos. My metabolic doctor has just started me on metformin which is said to help reverse weight gain in people who take antipsychotic meds etc. would love some friends in the same boat so feel free to add me.

Wow thanks for the comments guys, I will contact customer services and give it a go. Dawn

Hi, I'd like to join in ..... way too hot to walk in the day so I am walking after dark when it's cooler. 8/1 - 10,672

I also weigh in every day, but record it once a week on a Tuesday. I can't resist the scales and find it keeps me motivated.

I'm on Met for antipsychotic medication weight gain, initially it made me lose my appetite but now a couple of months on my appetite is back but I don't have cravings, it makes me feel satisfied and able to say no. I don't think about food all of the time like I used which is quite refreshing. Since being on the Met I have…

Hi, I know exactly what you are going through, I also put on a heap of weight with anti depressant meds. You can get this weight off, I have lost 63lb so it really can be done. You need to stick to a healthy eating plan and stay within your calories and move a bit more than usual. Good luck I hope it works for you.

Hi, I just looked it up on the Wendys website, they have the nutritional info ..... ok so the hotdog is 602 calories (2520 KJ). The sodium is pretty alarming 1610mg per hotdog. Sorry its not better news! Dawn

Hi Jay Welcome to MFP and for the add! It really can work for you, be careful not just to watch your calorie intake but also fats and sodium. Sodium can really hang onto weight so try not to select processed and prepackaged foods which contain heaps. You will find that soon you will get a taste for fresh whole foods such…

Mine is 22.11% :) happy with that!

Hi, I just wanted to congratulate you on your loss, that is a fantastic achievement!

Hi, we have a couple of Hungry Girl books and one of our favourites is the Butternut pumpkin chips .... so good!

40lbs is totally awesome, congratulations! You have done it once before so look at it like putting on a few pounds was a little hiccup in your plan. Get right back on that horse, you can do it! Good luck Dawn
