Darling olanzapine made me put on 23 kg.
I lost ten of those kg when I switched to latuda and was 60 kg for quiet some time but now my old size 8 trousers fit me again.
I am still 6 kg more than my normal weight without meds was but am rather delighted to have these trousers for my me.
It has taken some time.
How are you guys going with your weight?
I swapped my lunch for a weight watchers bar and have normal dinner but try and have smaller portions.
Olanzapine was a really good med for me apart from the weight gain.
How much olanazapine are u on…have u took ur dinner .
.its 6.00 clock …right ZILIJA.???
I have been eating biscuits but not buying any more in now
Back on the diet starting today
I’m on a calorie controlled diet. I’m losing weight really really slowly.
I’ve gained a ton since I was put on some recent drugs (a few I’ve been taken off of now). I hope Latuda works for you. It caused me to lose weight too but turned out to be a bad drug for me. We are all different and you may do well but my experience was a miracle gone bad.
I have gained a lot of weight since I have been on Chlorpromazine, I don’t eat much but I don’t do any exercise.
I have tried different antidepressants and vitamins with the Chlorpromazine with no luck in losing weight.
I have considered taking metformin like people who are on Olanzapine, but there is nothing on the internet about losing weight by taking metformin with Chlorpromazine.
I’ve recently lost 1kg just by streching before sleep for 3 nights.
Wow that is very good just from stretching.
I have lost about 7 kg(15 pounds) in 3 months and a half, since quitting abilify. I am still 8-10 kg overweight but much more confident now. Abilify was making me hungry… Now I eat less but I still don’t exercise much. I go for walks and sometimes to the swimming pool.
Thats good news andrey…congrates on weight loss buddy…
Streching is good for your metabolism. I’ve been busy lately and forgot my streching so I gained a few kilos. Seriously, streching keeps you slim.
Olanzapine is a very effective drug for psychosis and mood but unfortunately it makes just about everybody gain way too much weight.
I am on seroquel. When I was on rispolept I gained 15 kilos in few years. Per total I have 25 kilos more than I had in college…
