Thank you everybody so much for your great responses. Such great, helpful people on this site.
I do believe the SSRI slowed down my metabolism...I am working out like crazy and even running on a 9% incline on the treadmill!
I might have more of a carb craving lately too.
I actually feel better since stopping the Prozac. Am taking a couple of weeks and trying Omega 3 supplements, then will start on the Wellbutrin.
Although I've had bulimia the past year, I was never underweight. I was 5'7 and 134 lbs...Normal but now I am over 150 lbs! Very frustrating. So thank you all again. I have to believe my gut feeling is right and my metabolism has been very slowed down by the drug and hopefully this will reverse itself.
My best to all of you.-Lisa
