> I gained 70 pounds on Remeron, after changing meds, it still stuck but after a couple months, i couldn't take it....starved myself for 6 months, and now im back to my ideal size w/o having to watch what i eat. do what u can if you're feeling much improved on it, but i would'nt recomment anyone to start it unless all other same action meds were tried.
My question is - what other meds are in the sedating family of antidepressents and don't cause weight gain? Also, I'm going out today to buy a basal thermometer to take my morning temperature before and after being on remeron. What I want to determine is that - is it really a metabolic rate issue or is it an "eating too much carbs issue". I know also that the body is very complicated in the way it maintains its lean body mass and burns fat, but at least taking temperature is an easy thing that I can do!!!
Will tell you how it turns out.
