I want to try to get an idea of the % of users that are at a good weight

Are you at a good wait? If yes what med are you taking?

If not how many pounds are you overweight? And what med are you taken

i lost about 28 pounds when i stopped taking seroquel for about 3 months. i take it sparingly now as it gives me a sweet tooth but did manage to lose 14 pounds whilst taking it. at 600mgs it made me ravenous and i put on 42 pounds. at 25mgs it’s controllable and i lost all that weight. i now weigh ten stone and a couple of pounds. looking forward to losing another 14 pounds in the next few months. am now on abilify/seroquel combi. i am marginally overweight and a size 12. hoping to get down to a 10-12 by february.

I’m on amisulpride and at a good weight, too. Usually I am underweight but the meds helped me to put on. I’m about 140 pounds and am 5’11"

I’m on Latuda and I’m not over weight right now. I was able to drop back down when the Zoloft got taken out and the Seoquel got cut back.

Plus I have a pretty physical job (gardening and landscaping) and I like to swim.

I gained a few pounds while taking Saphris, but I was still underweight, so it wasn’t a problem. I’m around 115 right now.

I’m 48 pounds over weight. I’m on Latuda and seroqel…

About 10 pounds over what I’d like to weigh. Got a nice guy going. Healthfully round. Probably only gets bigger from here.

I gained a lot of weight when I was on Clopixol and subsequently Olexar. I’m on Abilify for just over a year now and have managed to lose about 20 pounds. Im still about 40+ pounds overweight. I am tall 6"3’ tall.

I’m too over weight. I used to be fine on seroquel but since I’ve been on invega I gained a lot of weight.

I’m 6"1. Since going on antipsychotics I’ve gone from around 70kg (154lbs or 11 stone) to around 95kg (209lbs or about 15 stone)

And I’m currently on quetiapine (seroquel)

I hate my weight. I’m quitting smoking and struggling to. I used to weigh around 230 lbs. No idea rn.

I started cutting down on smoking a week ago. So far I’m down from 20-30 heavily packed rollies a day to 3 or 4. What’s helping me is an ecig. It’s fantastic! No health issues, far cheaper and far nicer tasting. The 3 or 4 cigs a day is only to use up the rest of my tobacco

I’m about 50 lbs overweight and I’m on Geodon. I used to be nearly 200 lbs overweight and that was thanks to Zyprexa. I actually made it within 10 lbs of my target weight last fall, but a very stressful winter and spring did me no favours. Trying to get back on the health wagon. :frowning:

10-96

i give a whole new meaning to the phrase…OINK,OINK…OINK

Remeron made me weight about 100 kg. Now I’m 80 kg heavy. About 15 kg over weight. I have Abilify and Quetiapine now.

I have been on 3mg of risperdal for about 15 years. I am 5’9" and about 203lb. I would like to get back down to about 170 which seems more like an average weight for a guy in his late forties.

I am 170 lbs. I am on Latuda 120 mg. I am 5 6"
It is a normal weight for me. Risperdal and Zyprexa made me gain a lot of weight, like 30 lbs.

Try 80 lol! 15 characters
