Thanks for your response! I wish I could travel back in time and refuse that medication. My new doctor explained how it makes you gain weight. It messes with a chemical in your brain that tells you when you're full. That's why when I was on it I ate so much. I ate 40 Southwestern eggrolls from Chilli's. Lol. My doctor is on a tuna diet and he already lost 46 pounds. I tried that but tuna gets boring. Doctor said to eat less calories and not listen to like low carb diets and stuff like that. One of my friends suggested eating a spoon full of peanut butter as an appetite suppressant. I'm not active period during the day. I just lay around. I think doing more during the day will help along with the diet. I'm going to start today with eating less calories and doing chores around the house. My doctor said I should be able to lose weight quick since im only 20. Also, they offer free personal trainers at the clinic I go to, so that should really help. I know how to lose weight. It's just motivation. I'll do it for a week and quit.
