Thanks! I actually am not considering it for weight loss only--I just took some for the first time for possible ADD. If I continue, I hope it could counteract weight gain from desipramine. The weigh gain is definitely not from increased appetite/eating--actually desipramine curbs my carbohydrate cravings.
