I think latuda did the same thing to my cholesterol, but nowhere near as bad as what Seroquel did.

Mostly my set point weight in adulthood has been 104 lb. (5’4”), sometimes less if it’s a bad spell with the ED. If I weight train and consume tons of protein, I get around 110 lb. It’s harder to weight train now as I don’t belong to a gym, so I walk and jog a lot for exercise. I am actually eating healthier (have gotten my weight up around 5 lb,, and don’t eat any greasy fried foods since ulcer surgery.
