As of this morning I'm at my lowest weight ever since I was probably 12 or 13. So, weight gain is not a major fear at this point. Not sure what's causing it, and my T said I must exercise although I told him it'd make me lose weight (which it has) even thought he argued it'd increase my appetite, which it only slightly has. I still burn off everything.

Anyway, I had to buy new clothes due to this phenomenon, and no, I'm not anorexic or bulimic. I've never thrown up on purpose in my life and if anything I snack and eat too often. I love food. I was so hungry waiting for an Rx that I bought a box of Cheez-its yesterday and inhaled handfuls in the parking lot. And this was after a big lunch, a usual sized breakfast, then for dinner I had a cheesy omelet with the works inside, and cookie and ice cream and my protein choc shake for dessert. This is typical, except for I often eat/snack even more than this.

I love fattening foods and carbs. WTF is wrong with me? I'm not even depressed...it's almost as if the mania is spiking my metabolism too. Oh well. I'll be okay...I just don't want to drop any lower. May have to force myself to eat even when full.

Okay Risperidone, work your magic. Thanks everyone for listening.
