Whatever2013,
 Your post moved me to tears. In complete honesty, the worst and cruelest discrimination I've ever witnessed is the way people judge overweight people - especially overweight women. Just that term, in fact: Overweight. What does that really mean? Who set the standard, and when? And for what purpose?
I will say that I have been on antipsychotics for a long enough period of time that my A1C (glucose test) is headed toward diabetes, so my GP has prescribed Metformin. I'm on the 3rd day of taking it and so far, it has curbed my appetite dramatically. I no longer have the immense sugar cravings and the feeling that I almost constantly need to eat.
I have no illusions of returning to weighing 110lbs, but if I could drop 20lbs it would be a start.
