Shows me just how out of shape I am! But I felt good the rest of the day- the exercise endorphines kicked in. It doesn't help (or maybe it does?) that I have to walk a lot faster to keep up because N3's legs are longer than mine. This Spring and Summer, I'm going to ride my bike to get more exercise in. My liver doctor doesn't think walking is enough exertion but I think it is- especially if you walk at a clip like I have been. Don't get me wrong, I'm still out of shape. I'd like to get off Seroquel - pdoc says its just for sleep at this point, but hasn't taken me off completely.

As you know, it can be very tough to stop gaining and to begin to lose.
I hear varying opinions on low -dose Seroquel. Some docs say the low dose does nothing to hold onto weight. Others say that even those with a low does tend to gain weight!
I did have a time when I was loosing weight when taking a higher doses of Seroquel. I was doing a ketogenic diet at the time. I was not doing a fad type of keto, I was doing the old one, the one set up to help kids with seizures. (This version worked well, yet gave me very high cholesterol/lipids.
Sounds like you are trying and you can only do whatever you can do!
Keep it up!
Much Love
