If the topamax doesn't make you hungry you should probably still try to eat something. You can make it low calorie, of course. You should be eating six meals per day, dinner in the pm being your last. I always need a snack later in the evening, so I save some calories for that. Iris, you are correct, you need to eat to keep you metabolism going.....and eating six times per day does just that. That way you body doesn't hang onto every calorie waiting for another! Ask your trainer at the gym, he probably does know what you should be doing, or can ask someone who does. Lifting weights will increase your muscles mass, and that also speeds up your metablolism....do you do any weight resistance? High repititions with low weight will not make you big, just toned and burn fat faster 24/7. If you have any more questions you can always babble me, ok. Thanks for asking, it seems it's always me asking so many questions and driving everyone crazy!!!-L
