Since I started the anti-depressants in November, I've gained twenty pounds, even though I haven't changed my diet (if anything, I'm eating BETTER).

Soooo... bye bye pills. I'm sure I'm okay now anyway. I keep forgetting to take them, and I haven't experienced any weirdness, so we'll see.

If things get bad again and my body is showing signs of another seratonin deficiency, I'll resume. Don't worry.

I just can't keep blimping up like this when I'm working so hard to LOSE weight. It's making me more depressed, and that's a paradox I don't enjoy.

So, we'll see how it goes. I love the gym. I love eating like I used to. I'm going to love being under 200 pounds again.

You should see your doctor. Two things immediately popped into my mind when I read this: thyroid problems and/or incorrect diet. I know you're working very hard to eat healthy, but it's possible that you've chosen the wrong method for your specific metabolism for doing so. It's also possible that this is related to diabetes.

Anyway, you need to be checked out. Call now!
