I actually lost weight after I started on Geodon a little over a year ago. But I did gain some back thanks to several stints on Zyprexa. I'm only holding my own now because I make myself stick to low-cal snacks and meals during the day, and then I eat a big dinner but stay away from desserts.

It's the best I can do under the circumstances, because Vitamin Z makes me insanely hungry and I've been known to gain 25 lbs. in only six weeks on it. It also tends to drive my blood sugars well north of 200, which is too high (I'm a diabetic). I wish that weren't the case, because the stuff WORKS. But right now my pdoc's more worried about my instability than anything else, so who knows how long I'll be on it this time.
