Should I only take wellbutrin for weight loss? Please read?!


Question: Should I only take wellbutrin for weight loss? Please read?
Okay this might be long, sorry.
I have been trying to diet and exercise since October. But it's so hard and I would always cheat, and once I cheat I think 'Might as well go all out' and eat until it hurts. So here I am 5 months later, Ive spent so much time at the gym and I have nothing to show for it. I feel worse about my body than I did before.
About 2 years ago I was acting out and I was put on Topamax, Wellbutrin and Seriquel for my 'conduct disorder'. (Even though my brother just died and I didn't know how to react)
When I was on the medication, I lost about 20 pounds in a month, it was insane! But at the time I didn't have any interest in eating healthy and exercising, so I gained all my weight back gradually and here I am. So finally after many diet failed attempts, I lied to my doctor and convinced him to get me back on the medication.
I was previously taking 300mg wellbutrin, 100mg topamax, 100 seraquel at night. Now i'm only taking 150 of wellbutrin and 50 of seriquel, and 0 topamax! I really don't think I need the seraquel, it's for depression but doesnt have weightloss as a side effect. So should I just not take the seraquel but take a double does of wellbutrin? I really just want to get this over with so I can get off the pills all together. I like who I am without medication, I don't have behavioral problems anymore, i'm happy. Just the weight thing stood in my way. Please don't say I will gain all the weight back because I know how to maintain my weight, I have learned to enjoy eating healthy, and when I have a treat here and there I won't get such intense guilt and then pig out. And please don't tell me to just diet and exercise, I really have tried. This is the last resort.

Answers:

Wellbutrin really does just make you not care about ****, lose wieght. It helped me knock fricken Oxy, which was cake on wellbutrin. It will make you lose weight, it will also change your mood and make you a zombie. So get your wieght down, and even though you asked me not to, change your diet and exercize so it will stay down.



Don't use any meds. Eat right and try food replacements. I know you aren't addicted to drugs but there are metabolic issues when using any drug. This site is an American site but the natural products are available in Canada as well just not through this organization. You can feel free to email me for more information.http://pointofreturn.org/withdrawal_prog… there is a lot to learn when it comes to metabolism and how the body reacts to the environment around us.



Wellbutrin is not a weight loss drug. You're taking it already and not losing weight.

The reason you lost weight when your brother died was because your brother died. Grief will cause weight loss.

Lying to your doctor and taking medication for a condition you don't have is sign of drug abuse.

Don't do it.
