I think it can show your metabolism which is why you gained 5lbs w no different habits but no positive. 5lbs isn't much, right? Are the meds working?

5lbs is a lot for me in a month since I haven't changed my habits, and it might still be going up which is my worry! This morning I weighed 137 nakie... so that's 7lbs since I started a month ago. And yeah not sure if it's going to go up anymore either :/ That's why I'm wondering if there's anything I can do besides working out a bunch (like supplements or something) to increase my metabolism.
And omg the meds have been a lifesaver! I'm probably going to make a thread about Saphris soon, letting everyone know how much it's helped me. To be honest I feel fantastic, (but not in a manic way) just... a sense of normalcy and balanced. No more paranoid thoughts (at least not as bad) my mind has "calmed down" quite a bit, I'm not sleeping nearly as much as I used to, and I haven't felt the slightest bit depressed since I started taking my meds. I feel a sense of control over my life that I haven't felt it quite a long time
