> > I started Topamax to counteract weight gain with Anti-D's and aslo help my Migrains. I have finally worked my way up to 125-150 mgs a day in three months. Although I have not had hardly and side effects since I have slowly increased the dose, I have not seen ANY weight loss. The urge to binge or over-eat has dimished, any I definitely eat less, but I am very fustrated with the lack of weight loss. What dosage has anyone begun to see real weight loss? Any input would be great! Thanks
> > increased by more than 100% (from 30mg to 75) if I'm going to naturally plateau or if (HA HA -- this is joke-able) I would hit a point where I'd actually lose too much or not be able to control the loss of weight.

> Hello, Try not to be so hard on yourself at this time. I know that it is difficult to do, but it will all balance out in time.Try to push fluids especially water and try some moderate exercise if you can. If you like veggies, you can eat lots of them with some carb free dressing or dips. Go to Walden Farms.com.These dips and dressings are actually quite good. These are empty calories with high fiber and healthy rewards especially your green leafy veggies. Also, There is a book called Eating for your Blood type which may be beneficial.Don't forget some light aerobics, go slow and build up. You will love the results. Good Luck! Micro
