OMG!!! My pdoc just says "eat less and do more" like I'm a fricking moron for being unable to lose weight!!
I'm on an antidepressant that causes weight gain, which makes me more depressed and full of self-loathing at how I lack self-control for being unable to lose it. My body has been destroyed by meds as some have made me violently ill and lose a stone as I can't face eating, while others make me gain a stone above my 'normal' weight and yo-yoing up and down has ruined my once-flat stomach
This sucks!
