I workout and I've been fine on my meds. I take 200mg of lamictal and 0.5 mg of risperdal for schizoaffective; I don't have trouble burning fat and gaining muscle. The thing that interfered the most was that my anti psychotic always made me hungry so I would eat all the time. I munch on fruit, veggies, and low calorie snacks all day now so I'm not gaining a bunch of weight. My abs are starting to come in since I'm not eating 875843 calories a day
