I took lamotragine? (generic for lamictal) for a year? No food stuff/weight stuff but terrible painful cystic acne. Gained weight on Lithium/Geodon (they say Geodon is weight neutral, but it's the only consistent drug I've been on), never lost it until I became vegan Jan 1 and started Topamax Feb 1. Down 47 pounds since Jan 1.

Very little appetite, small meals, never ever snack.

Still have 50 lbs to lose but I feel very hopeful given how far I've come

But people, we have to eat with these drugs. Most of them, and some of them a real meal. Like 350 calories! Or you get a half dose! And cause damage to your liver!
