• Welbutrin, Lexapro, and weightloss?
|
I'm on 200mg Welbutrin and 10mg Lexapro for depression. I"ve been taking this combo for a few weeks now and over the past 2-3 weeks especially, I haven't been feeling any hunger. I've literally lost 8 lbs over the past of the last week or so. I know this isn't healthy, but I can't force myself to eat unless I'm hungry. Anybody having the same problems? Any suggestions?
And I don't want to play with it because I'm mood-wise feeling amazing.

• Losing weight while on lexapro?
|
Im on 10mg of lexapro daily. Ive been on it for about 2 weeks now. I want to badly lose weight, I think that my anxiety is cuased by me being overweight. I actually started an excersize routine when i started the meds. Ive been running 2 miles a day for 2 weeks now and eating healthy. Yet i see no weight loss, I remeber in the past that by week two i was seeing results. Does lexapro impede in weightloss?

• Is it hard to get a doctor to prescribe topamax?
|
I have tried midrin, imitrex,vicoden,zomig,maxalt,beta blockers,lexapro(antidepressant) and herbal therapy, for my migraines. Triptans work about 80% of the time, vicoden takes teh pain away for about 3 hours and the rest I get about a 20% success rate with. I have heard topamax usually works but with harsh side effects. I want to try it out because I can't take this migrain pain away. I want to see how bad I get the side effects so I can make my own decision. Is it hard to get a doctor to prescribe it? It is also marketed as a migraine med. I have done the research and know what to expect. I am getting excited thinking of releife and the possible weightloss. I hope I can deal with the memory & tinglies..... This would be a life changing event I have an appointment tomorrow to discuss this.

• Does Topamax help counter SSRI (Lexapro) weight gain?
|
I've only been on Lexapro for 4 weeks, I'm starting to gain about a tenth or two of a pound each week, which is common with SSRIs. Most people who DO gain will gain gradually and end up gaining close to 20 pounds in a year.
I went to see my doctor today and explained the problem. He decided to put me on 50 mg of Topamax, in addition to Lexapro, since it has been proven to help people on SSRIs to lose weight. Its label use is actually for epilepsy and migraine headaches.
Has anyone else been put on this drug to counteract the effects of and SSRI? Or have you ever been on Topamax by itself and seen weightloss as a side effect?
What dosage is required to see weight loss benefits? Also, has anyone experiences hairloss with this drug? I've heard that can be a side effect.

•Voting Question: help! lose weight asap?
|
I'm 15 and weighing 120, i know that's the 'healthy' weight, but 3 months ago i was 102. I got put on an anxiety medicine called lexapro, and it made me gain all the weight.. i really want to go back down to atleast 110, and within a month.. and keep it like that.
I know you need to exercise but im not someone who can just sit there and do push ups, etc. do you have anyone 'fun' exercising recommendations?
and for eating, how many calories a day? what should my daily meals snacks look like?
Any reccomendations you've heard of quick healthy weightloss?
thanks ! **
