Ya'll...
I am getting worried about this whole weight thing. I am now really concentrating on my eating and trying to see if that helps. I was so anxious for so long that I was not eating much, I got on the scale the other morning and saw I had gain 6 lbs in a month. I have been eating well and lost a pound. I am just freaking out, I do not want to get fat~ Does anyone know anyway to lost weight on SSRIs. I seem not to have gain on 10mg but have since going up on my dosage, I am going to cut down on my doseage when I get home but do not want to go home looking like a lard!!!!!!
Help,
Lexy

Yeah I have been a horse the past couple days, I know I only started about a week ago, but stillllll...I havent gained any weight, but I feel like I have an excuse to be hungry. I am trying to brainwash myself...Dont eat much until the wedding...then you can eat...It isnt working though...It is funny, I used to be hungry at night, and now I am not, but lunchtime I can put some food back. I was keeping a journal for about three months, but I only lost ten pounds...I just can gain any! If anyone has any good weight loss tips in a short amt of time please share!!

Hey Guys,
I read about taking Omega 3 Fish Oil and vitamin E for weight loss. Someone on Paxil started this and lost a good amount of weight. Just wondering if anyone had heard of this. Where is everyone???

Hi Lexy, I have lost 15 pounds on Atkins while taking Lexapro. It has been pretty easy. If you need more info on Atkins, let me know and I'll be happy to give you some tips. I just got back from vacation and I didn't gain a pound back even though I cheated big time! By the way, good luck to you! I am so proud of you for coming this far and I know that you will be a caring and competent therapist (can I have your card?). Hope you still continue to check in with us when you get back home. Mrs. C

To everyone who responded to my post last night, Thanks! I do feel slightly better today but still no period and still feeling pretty crappy! What's all this talk about "open babble"? Is it a chat room. That sounds like alot of fun and we can talk "live". I'm going to try to go there now. Mrs.C

Mrs C.!
Thanks for all the support. Can you let me know a little about the Atkins Diet, that means no bread, pasta or potato correct. I may be able to do that... can you eat fried food?? I do wonder about it just have not done it yet, I would like to lose about 6lbs.
Thanks... I will for sure give you my card.
LexyPS...My periods have been off cycle since I started lexapro, I was two weeks late last time!

Just wondering if anyone had heard of this.Some people on the Alternative Babble haven't felt well on fish oil, but Omega 3, and vitamin E in moderation, shouldn't hurt.

Mystic...
Not sure how much to take. I take two capsules of E and 2 Fish Oil, I just got the vitamins so its whatever side is normal. I feel a TON better since stopping the calcium. I talked to a dietition who said there was no way it was the calcium but I have read other things that say you can have too much calcium, I think I may have been taking too much. I bought some magnesium oxide but am scared to take it because I have such weird reactions to stuff...uggghhh. Oh well, I just want to lose my 6lbs. I am waking up before work to go running so hopefully I will get back on track. I have also been eating much better so hopefully....
God Bless,
Lexy

I was really antsy and anxious when I tried it. Has it affected you like this at all?

Simus..
Thanks for the info. I have such strange reactions to stuff. Who knew taking too much calcium could make me feel so bad, who knew taking the birthcontrol pill could shatter my world. Oh well, at least I know to be careful! I bought some magnesium oxide but am too scared to take it because of my weird reactions....I'm weird but at least I am pretty happy.
God Bless,
Lexy
PS..How are things on Wellbutrin, I know you were feeling a little up then life took over and down you were feeling, here's hoping your on the up!

> Not sure how much to take. I take two capsules of E and 2 Fish Oil, I just got the vitamins so its whatever side is normal.
Could I butt in and suggest that you start them on different days, so that if you do have a bad reaction, you will know which one it is. Even better, Lexy, (none of my business, of course), but could you search "fish oil" on Babble and just read what problems people have had with it? I am just concerned because you are so sensitive to calcium.
> I feel a TON better since stopping the calcium. I talked to a dietition who said there was no way it was the calcium but I have read other things that say you can have too much calcium, I think I may have been taking too much.
Gotta love all the "experts" out there. It is not unusual at all to have too much calcium. I just have never heard of it causing depression, but it really doesn't take much sometimes to throw our brains off balance.
> I bought some magnesium oxide but am scared to take it because I have such weird reactions to stuff...uggghhh.
It's completely different from calcium, and you just may have good results with it. I did. It's worth a try, since you already have it.
If you have blood-sugar ups-and-downs, and cravings for sweets, try chromium picolinate. It helps regulate blood-sugar.

Thanks for asking. I am on 150mg of Wellbutrin (and 1mg Xanax) still, and doing great! I deal with moderate insomnia, but that is soooo minor compared to the fact that I am ALIVE again!I have some physical issues to deal with from being soooo sick for the past 4 months. I spent a lot of time vegitating/sleeping during that time. Now I not only have even more weight to lose than before Lexapro, but the added weight and inactivity caused lower back pain and edema in my legs and feet(which is also painful). The solution to it all is exercise, but it hurts so much to move sometimes that it takes my breath away. I am just building myself up a little every day, and slowly I am seeing improvement. I just have never been great with being patient, and it is frustrating that now that I am mentally stronger, I can't do everything I want to do.
