I had two UTIs on Topomax. Then I drank and drank so much water and they stopped. Oh and I took cranberry juice pills.
Do you exercise? Maybe that will help with your hunger and keep the weight away.
Yeah, I could give you diet tips, but they would kill you.
Not to sound rude, but can you just not give in to the hunger. Do you have to eat every time you are hungry? I'm really sorry, I didn't know how else to ask that. Stay away from sugar and carbs which will make you more hungry. Drink lots of water. Keep fresh veggie cut up and ready to eat.
Have you had your blood sugar tested? I know you have had weight gain from meds etc, it might be wise to make sure you don't have diabetes (which would cause weight loss and not weight gain, but it's important).
Other than the Abilify, what are your options? Is the Abilify helping you?
Sorry for all the questions.
