>Hi GG,
That seems odd to me too. I've only heard about weight gain problems with Nardil, not Parnate.
When I started Nardil I thought that I could combat urges for sweets. Boy, was I wrong! I've been eating chocolate like crazy. I've got to stop (but it tastes so good) and with Halloweén coming up every drugstore is full of bags of cheap chocolate. Ack!
In any case, I'm going to press on with the exercise and hope I can regulate myself better. I too sweat like crazy and just feel weak. Someone on the board mentioned increasing salt intake which helps increase BP. However, I know the real problem is my calorie intake. I can work off 400-600 calories in an exercise session but then turn around and eat a bag of chocolate with 800 calories. Got to control the eating.
