Bmi is 29!!! I think I’m the most I’ve ever weighed. Trying lose 12-15 pounds. I think it’ll be easy for me. I never watch what I eat. All fried foods and whatnot. Now I’m only gonna eat healthy chicken as my sole meat. And more salads and stuff. I will look good once I lose this weight.

Sorry you’ve had a tough time with the meds and weight gain. At least you don’t look it but it’s still frustrating I know. I walk a lot and do 20 push-ups per night. That’s my excercise. Plus like you I’m young. I feel eating unhealthy food is a compulsion more than anything. I’m not a foodie but I eat fried chicken and wings and hotdogs and burgers a lot. Out of compulsion. There are my addictions like substances and then compulsions like porn and eating where I just have to tell myself to stop or cut down and it’s not too difficult I hope. I had a chicken Caesar salad for lunch. I saved the rest for dinner. I feel the Zoloft gives me insight into my things I need to fix rather than just putting them to the side. It’s really improved my lifestyle. I gotta go to therapy though. Later! And good luck with your weight loss. Maybe a tiny bit of excercise each day can go a long way. It also is a good distraction for quitting smoking they say.

when i wanted to lose weight i got kinda obsessed with it and lost 55 pounds in 4 months now my bmi is 25.8 but i am trying to not gain any weight as my new med makes me hungry but the voices dont even want me to eat they talk about me like i am extremely overweight everytime i want something to eat like i am hungry often not physically but like i will just want something to eat and now i am eating at maintenance instead of eating to lose weight but i feel a little bit of shame everytime i eat something now it is weird i hope when i get on a higher dose of abilify that the hallucinations will stop so i can eat pizza if i want to and not feel bad about it because of what they are saying

Since I had a med change I think I can get down to a nearly normal weight. I lost nearly 40 pounds so far about 45 to go.
