i dont know if i ever mentioned this, but i was on zoloft for a while. it mellowed out my appetite. i eat a lot when i am depressed though...( "atypical" depression), so maybe that was simply due to feeling better.
it takes a while for antidepressants meds to work too so maybe that side effect will go away.

and let me just give you the same advice you gave me in chat... "just eat the cake!"
