I already am. I started it just about 2 months ago. It's not as effective as it might be because trying to lose weight on clozapine is extremely difficult. I'm losing about 1.5 lbs per week but this week maybe nothing. I am working on increasing my exercise.

Glad it worked for you! Hope it does for me with longer usage.
