I've been on seroquel for insomnia for about ten years now. Right now I'm on my highest dose 300mg. Back in the days on 50-100mgs I had no problems with weight and was 97lbs. My pdocs couldn't believe I was on it for so long and stayed so skinny. Well check my records doc, I have an ED. Well lately my eating disorder has been in check and I watch what I eat. A lot of protein shakes and bars. Healthy cereal and soy milk. But thanks to seroquel I've grown a pouch. In my eyes (I also have BDD) I look pregnant. I hate being in the shower cuz my stomach just sticks out! And when it comes to sex... My bf has to struggle to make me take my shirt off lol (sorry TMI, I'm an open book).
Has anyone been able to maintain or lose weight on this drug? I know I probably need the extra pounds and I just got out of IP where meal time was my highlight of the day lol. So I'm struggling trying to lose the weight I've gained in there.
