Hi,
I've lost 9 pounds in the almost three weeks I've been on Effexor, but I've also gotten back into an exercising. I'm also taking advantage of the loss in appetite to modify my eating habits so that hopefully when the appetite comes back, my habits will be in place and I won't gain back. Healthy weight loss is about 1 - 2 pounds a week, so losing as much weight as we have so quickly puts us at risk to gain it back. BUT - that doesn't have to happen!
Keep us all posted! Good luck!

> Has anyone else had problems with losing weight on effexor or gaining? I heard people say of gaining, but I am only on 75mg of effexor and losing. Funny that I can spend money to go to a weight loss program for the past year and lose more on my anti-depressant. What do you think?
