I'm only on seroquel 100mg and have gained almost 20 pounds, not only that but on seroquel it's been hard to even have the motivation to excercise.
Sorry, can't help with a solution, but would love to know one also. |

| I went from a size 10 to a 16. I am so sad and depressed. I am not taking the SQ any more, as I already take Lithium and Clonazapam. It is really important to keep track of your weight on this drug...It can get out of control. FAST. I am exercising every day, and just want to get rid of this layer of bubble wrap on my body. I have never been super fit...but played lots of sports, and walked a lot, and I can agree: Exercise is so the last thing you feel like doing on this drug. Eating chocolate cake however, well, you know. It is a hypnotic hunger that comes over you after you take it, like you never had dinner. I have even sleep-walked to get a bowl of rice and milk. I was actually in bed, asleep, and woke up in a drunken-like daze and made it, and ate it, and found it on the window sill the next morning! Holy Crap! That's just crazy. Just watch your weight and stay on top of it, and go right to bed after you take it (though on my case that was no guarantee). Tell your doc that diet and exercise don't cut it on this med. Conversely, accept that you will be stable but fat. That's my 2 cents. Good Luck! |
