Very interesting. I attributed my weight gain to hormonal factors, but since coming off the Effexor I've noticed I have a much reduced appetite. I was already on a weight loss program and have lost 20 lbs so far, but have more to go (still in the "obese" range). It will definitely help if I'm less hungry!
