weight
there has been no movement in weight loss, but i can tell you, the weight gain has stopped, been the same weight now for over a month. So , i guess that is progress, in a way. soon, i will be able to go to the YMCA to exercise, that will help out tremendously. i had my p-doc appointment yesterday, and mentioned the weight gain, he said seroquel will do that. So, now we have the truth.. I do not think it matters what meds you are on, i think they all, or almost all, make you gain weight.

I need to get doing an exercise program myself. Been gaining weight lately. Good luck!
You are in what they call a \'plateau\'. You have to burn more calories now than before, but still eat the same. Hard, I know, that\'s why I\'m still heavy! LOL!
Thanks for your comment on my journal, it meant a lot to me,

i have a double problem, first, i am not as young as i used to be, and i have a problem with both feet. My right foot is arthritic, and i have a heel spur in my left foot. These two problems with my feet are not conducive to exercise.
there are loads of different exercise techniques which don\'t involve using feet. :) if you look them up on google, you should find loads. you\'ve got my full support! maybe your weight loss has slowed down cos you\'ve started building muscle instead, which weighs more than fat! :) good luck. xxxx
hubby and i went to an airshow, and i must say, we got alot of exercise by walking. No progress yet in the weight loss department. I hate being this heavy.
I actually have some progress to report today. After getting up from a sahort nap, i actually straightened up the living room, (still needs dusting and vacuumuing) and i did 3 loads of wash. Not much, bt it is more than i have done in ages. The bedroom and bathroom are not that bad. So i will do them tomorrow. As for my weight, no progress, but at least i am not gaining weight.
Wellbutrin,Risperdol and Lamictal have not seemed to help me gain weight. In fact, after I started Wellbutrin I lost my appetite. Of course that could have been depression too.
