mscrane--did you lose the paxil weight? I gained a
bunch of weight on lamictal and finally went off of
it, I worked really hard and lost 10 pounds. now I'm trying effexor, and I noticed I gained back
2 of those precious pounds in one week! My appetite is off
the roof! I just want to eat french fries and ice cream...
I'm a big exerciser too--5 times a week aerobic, 2 times a week
strength training...but sometimes, although it tones me up, it
doesn't do much for the ad weight gain (but admittedly I haven't
done much diet wise...I'm pretty attached to food...). It seems
like there's no way you could gain weight on the amount of exercise
you're doing...I remember water weight on celexa when I tried it.
Anyway, just wondering how weight loss is for you?Anyone else out there experience increase appetite and weight
gain on effexor?
