As I've mentioned, it's been suggested by my counselor that I look into medication, but I've been on the fence about it.
However, I used to be obese as a teenager. I've lost a lot of weight, but I fall into despair when I even put on 1lb now. I'm terrified that I"ll put on weight again.
I totally understand how you feel.

you can talk to your dr about which antidepressants have weight neutral qualities. my dr worked with me on that since my other meds affected my weight so much - Wellbutrin is known for not making you gain weight - it's the one i take and it really helps me.
