> how long have you been on the wellbutrin? are you supplementing with the wellbutrin or taking it solo? most people (there are always exceptions) lose weight with wellbutrin because they have more energy but mainly because it takes away your urges to eat and you just forget to do it even if you smell yummy food sometimes.

Terra,
Thank you for your input. I have only been on Wellbutrin for 2 months and I do notice that my appetite has decreased tremendously. But when I started the WB I didn't ever feel the need to smoke. I never quit completely, but I couldn't finish a whole cig. But it seems like the longer I am on this pill the more I have the urge to smoke. I am hoping that my appetite doesn't do the same thing. I know I probably don't need an appetite suppresent, I was thinking more like a fat burner. Which I could probably find in some kind of herbal supplement. But I have heard that some herbs aren't very safe either.
