Thank you for your advice and reply. I think I'll go with what my psychologist says. Thank you

That's a really good idea. My psychologist says it's a bad idea with my medication, but my family doctor says it's fine... I guess the reason I gained it all back is actually not because of medication, but I just felt so restricted on ideal protein (my last diet) that when I finally came off of it I chowed down! Then some…

Effexor can be very activating where, trazadone is more sedating. I take nozinan for sleep and have never looked back. Good luck finding the right meds :)

I also have a problem with yo-yoing. I've mastered gaining and losing weight but the part that baffles me is keeping a steady weight. What the poster above said makes sense :)

Cheesecake. Cant stand the stuff! lol

I was on this diet, back in the day, lol - anyway, its around 700 - 900 cals a day. I lost a lot of weight but guess what? I gained it all back! imo, save your money, you can starve yourself for free (not that I suggest that, or would :))

haha me too, I eat everything instead, lol

I.... am not! but my hot Filipino husband is and I just love everything about the people, the food the culture.... the hotness... feel free to add me too people :D

My heart goes out to you and everyone here. I am bipolar as well and very active on MFP and am also struggling to lose weight, but I always try my best and that's all we can ever really do, right? :) Anyone can feel free to add me.

I log everyday too. I eat a balanced diet and am looking for some friends that log everyday :)

I also never get thirsty, but I'm trying to drink more water lately and I'm on a new drug now so I guess I kind of have to. Very interesting read though :)

mmm this recipe just makes my gastritis cry with excitement!

@wobbspsfl - no. I would die. lol

Dark Cuteness!

@mommyshortleg - the calm before the storm :)

My mom always makes.... a second turkey dinner! lol.

I don't necessarily have it with face masks, but I was (still recovering) from some lovely Amore Pacific face cream I was using. It is such a shame, it smells so beautiful. I had a similar reaction to some Chanel cream, the smell was also wonderful. I think it may be a fragrance thing?

I will log forever!

I actually haven't binge ate in a long time, ive just been eating horrible everday steadily and logging it all. However, I suspect once I go back on a diet in the new year it will start up again. **** cycle. My worst I dont even know... but I also plan it and do that food cycle. Weird isnt it?

No no, you will fit in them. I belive you can have your cake and eat it too (or in this case have your meds and lose weight too). You just have to do some tweaking. Monitor your foods or portions or cut calories, up exercise etc. Whatever, thats what I am doing in the new year. I take seroquel and epival so trust me, I…

Hi there! I have bipolar as well, you can add me :)

Well, I don't know if you're taking meds or not, but I am and it certaily makes it harder, but it doesnt make it impossible. Keep at it and try your best, it's all you can do :) Also I love coke zero too :)

I am so glad I replied to this post! I've made many more new friends and feel less alone in this medication/weightloss journey :) hopefully together we can do this!

I am on divalproex sodium, seroquel, clonazApam, hydroxine (last two as needed) all for bipolar disorder I have been packing on the pounds and I don't know what to do. I've already cried my eyes out today :(. Any suggestions or friend requests would be greatly appreciated :) thanks guys!

Now I am in the same situation :( I have been steadily packing on the pounds and despite having bad days I have mostly good days and I have still been gaining. I refuse to take medication that will make me lose the battle I know how to win. I am seeing my GP on Monday for alternatives. At least I am not the only one out…

I am eager to try this after thanksgiving (tomorrow) but... I dont have facebook :blushing:
