> I have experienced a tremendous weight loss on wellbutrin. I have found that for the 1st time in my life i have no emotional attachment whatsoever to food. I look at things that would have set me off before like pastries or pizza and think 'well i suppose i could eat that if i were hungry, but so what?'. I also have been more active, as in walking more than driving. I have lost aboout 25 lbs. in 6 weeks! I am very pleased as i am FINALLY experiencing what is a normal reality for non food obsessed people. wellbutrin rocks!
michele,
i also found that when taking the wellbutrin SR, i didn't feel like eating. for once in my life, i found that i was able to stop myself before i cleaned my plate, and i was able to say no to cookies because i wasn't hungry! it was incredible.however, i'm now taking the regular wellbutrin, and i havent noticed as much of an appetite suppressing effect. it's been several days now and not a pound lost. :( (on the SR i lost 5 pounds the first week)
