What other meds do you take? That could be the problem, especialy if you added another. How much wellbutrin do you take? Maybe an increase in dose is needed?

I've been on Wellbutrin SR 300 mg for about 5 weeks and haven't seen an effect on my weight. Are you feeling a lot better now that you're on it - were you not eating as much before? I know how meds can make you ravenous. Lexapro did that to me at 20mg.

I'll be interested to hear what other WB users have found.

I was on a diet and lossing rapid weight when I started WB. It helped make the weight loss a bit easyer and peaked my energy. Lean protein, vegtables, and masive hunger. Before starting the wellbutrin I felt like I could slip at any time.
