It may be the seroquel. Seroquel isn't as bad as Zyprexa, but I've heard a lot of people complain about it and it definitely didn't help with the weight gain I experienced with Zyprexa.
I gained 50 pounds on Zyprexa. I worked out 5 times a week and ate a low fat diet. I saw a nutrionist. I followed a strick low carb diet. None of it helped. Not even a lil bit. Since coming off Zyprexa right after Thanksgiving, I have dropped 35 pounds. My pdoc saw the same thing in patient after patient.
Maybe diet and exercise will work for you.
I wish you the best of luck,
Girl
