> 1) What AD didn't cause you to gain weight
Prozac, Effexor, Zoloft, Celexa
> 2) What your exercise program and eating patterns were like when taking drug
same as ever

> 3) Were you overweight from another med previously taken?
nope
> 4) Did you include a second AD/stim or appetite suppressant/diet pill to help with weight loss?
sometimes, but the ADs seemed weight-neutral

Lots of people don't gain weight. Paxil seems to be the worst offender among the SSRIs, and Zyprexa is notorious, but for the most part I think its kind of like other side effects--some people get sleepy, others don't.
I have wondered if people who already struggle with their weight were less prone to AD related weight gain than people who are naturally thin. Anybody want to weigh in on that baseless theory?
