I was on Zoloft from November 2019 til May 2020 and I went from 185lbs to 216lbs. I asked to be taken off of it in May and so I was put on Wellbutrin and I thought it was great at first and dropped down to 206lbs stayed there til September but then started packing on the weight plus more and hit my heaviest in January 2021 at 230lbs.
I lost a little weight since then and now I fluctuate from 228-225lbs. Since then I have been doing the CICO. I mean actually doing it, counting calories snd the ones I burn. I’ve been exercising (walking/jogging usually with Apple fitness but making sure I hit my numbers). Eating less and healthier but not starving myself. I’ve stopped bingeing and barely get fast food anymore. I consulted my doctor and she’s stumped.
I notice my weight problems are usually directly in line with my mental health. I was never overweight, ever in my entire life till I turned 21 and everything just got worse. So this is something that’s still relatively new to me and very hard to deal with. I gained weight years ago from meds, got off them and lost the weight, and then gained some back after awhile due to depression and anxiety starting back up again. This time I had to go back on meds but my body is really sensitive to medication and I’m starting to think this could be why I’m struggling...
I just wanted to see if anyone else was the same way. I know everyone’s body is different but it’s driving me insane cause when I look up side effects of Wellbutrin everyone says they lose weight...
I’m considering asking to go off the meds again and see if that helps.
