> OK: I've been on Zoloft (150mg daily) for about 8 months. I'm now a fat blob. I've gained about 20 pounds and ALL my pants are now getting too tight to wear even while 'sucking it in.'

I've was always one of those fortunate people who stayed nice and slim whatever I ate, with barely any exercise. After a year of Remeron I have gained nearly 30 pounds. It is ridiculously difficult to lose weight while on AD's, in my experience...even with dieting and exercise. The other week I finally caved in, after sadly saying goodbye to my old slim fitting clothes, and bought some new bigger ones. So I guess my answer would be; Get some new pants!
