lost weight after changing meds
 

Hi!

I know some of us deal with weight issues due to meds, and I wanted to share my recent success.

I am bipolar, and took lithium for about four years. Over that time, I put on almost 50 pounds! :mad:

Last year at this time, I started transitioning from lithium to Lamictal. Now, one year later, I am ten pounds lighter. The weight is coming off slowly, but I'm excited. On lithium, it was like whatever I did, I couldn't lose weight.

So I wanted to tell you all that it CAN happen. Meds can mess with your weight. But eventually you can find the right meds for you, and take the weight off.

:)

CONGRATULATIONS !!!!!

Your so right, everyone is different and dont give up :D
