I don't know if it is the risperdal or what, but i can't stop eating. Especially sweet stuff. It's horrible because I get the feeling like I'll die if i don't have the sweets, i about had a fit when my brother ate some ice cream i had. As i type this i'm baking some brownies... the meds are taking over my life! And then i feel bad because none of my clothes fit and when i go shopping i get very upset and discouraged with clothes. Why am i eating like this? Has anyone else experienced uncontrollable eating and cravings?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
About a week ago, I ate a half of a banana cream pie, a big piece of cake, and a whole container of ice cream.
That was my appetizer. After that, I did some REAL eating!!!!!
Burp.
I feel your pain. Seroquel made it unbearable. A would take my morning meds, eat breakfast, and be sleeping within 30 mins. When I woke up I'd be starving, eat again, take my meds (usually not on time because I would oversleep missing the correct dosage time). Eat again skip meds...an ugly time of my BP memories.
