I was on Zoloft for a few years. For the first few weeks that I was taking it, I just didn't feel like eating. I lost a little bit of weight. I wasn't on any kind of weightloss program at the time, and gained the weight back when my appetite returned.

When I first went on Zoloft, I lost 10 pounds right away!!! It was sooo awesome. of course, it stopped after awhile, lol. But whatever.

I have been on Zoloft for half of a week and lost 5 lbs because every time I try to put food in my mouth my body screams at me to spit it out... and I LOVE food. Eating is great. But now I can't. I'm not sure what to do either.

I lost 15 pounds at first but now have gained 45 on Zoloft, so it will stop. It's a temporary thing that will last a few months, along with the other side effects. They will eventually go away.

It magically took away my anxiety and that made me relax and therefore I began eating w/o worrying as much about anything. Then I was so relaxed on it that I stopped exercising and kept eating with my newly inherited appetite on Zoloft.

Then I looked at the scale and screamed.

I abruptly switched meds and never went back on that 1 again. Then joined a gym and began having a lot of energy to work FT. Then binged only a few times a week vr everyday and enjoyed the excitement of a noticeable amount of weight loss.

Still experience anxiety over eating and have sleep problems so must come down at night on an anti anxiety agent or have terrible insomnia.

Dont exercise as much now because do work 2 diff jobs to survive here in CA, USA.....

Feel guilty about Not exercising enough butt thats another thread for another day.....
