I too am on Remeron, 30 mgs. for 2 and 1/2 years now. I have put on almost 40 pounds with it. I did Atkins, lost most of it, got tired of Atkins and it all came back on VERY fast. If you do lost the weight on Atkins you have to stay on Atkins forever. I have been unable to lose any of the Remeron weight any other way, even with vigorous exercise. I just began tapering. I want off this med. I am tired of the weight. I am now doing 15 mgs. instead of 30. It is MUCH more sedating at this dose. Appetite hasn't increased though. I am hoping the depression doesn't creep back in. The next few weeks will tell me if I can stay off this med or not.
