Meds definitely have an effect on weight, but any effect can be overcome...it may take more work & determination, but it can be done. There also may be different meds that can have less effect on weight. I know that I found several that actually caused me to deal with anorexia (go figure).....but they were Prozac & Wellbutrin & a huge dash of stress.

As for foods to eat & not eat....remember that sugars go to fat if not exercised off.....also carbohydrates act like sugar in the body....cutting out sugar & carbohydrates is also a good thing to add to any diet you are on. What you eat is very important....if you cut back & still eat foods that are not protein....you will not loose weight successfully no matter how hard you try.

Just put all the loosing issues together & work with them along with EXERCISE.

You can get there with a lot of determination.....don't give up because it takes a lot of work.
