I gained 130lbs while on an antidepressant. It became difficult to walk so I stopped med, with my doctor’s advice, and started counting calories. Put myself on a 1200cal per day diet. I have lost 75lbs, so far. It’s not easy, but I eat healthy food and when I reach 1200cal I stop. It’s free, no drugs or side effects. Slow and steady is the best way. Of course, like me, do this with the advice of your doctor.

Thank you for responding. I asked monitor if we could start a new discussion on weight loss and obesity without the biatratic surgery beginning. I think many like me do not want to have that surgery and or have not had the surgery and the obesity discussions would really helped many.
I have gotten many responses and all have helped me. I do think the antidepressants do cause weight gain along with some other medications I take for my heart. What I am reading is quit hoping for something other than your own commitment plan to lose weight.
I also see do what works for you but do see everyone is citing eating healthly.
Have you been able to return to your walking? Keep up the good work!
