Help!! I've been on Lexapro for about 2 weeks now, 1 week @ 5mg and now 1 week @ 10mg. I've already gained 4lbs!!

I have noticed I am more hungry than normal but I haven't been eating too much more than usual. I track my calories and exercise daily so I know the numbers and I've been in a deficit for the entire two weeks yet I've still gained weight!

Anybody else gain a lot of weight on Lexapro? Anybody gain a little weight but then able to maintain it after getting used to the medicine?

I gained 80 pounds on Celexa when I started it 11 years ago but I've since taken most of that weight off and I do not want to gain it all back!
