Hi there,
I do cardio 4-5 days a week and weights 3 times a week. Over the past two years I have gain about 15 pounds, I'm about 15-20 pounds overweight. I'm on (200)lamictal, lithium(1200, risperdal, and effexor and haven't gained any weight yet, but I can't lose any despite working out like crazy. I have always had dysthimia, major depression but because of my cycling was diagnosed with bipolar depression 11. I have obsessive thoughts severe generalized anxiety, and yes I have a binge and restrict pattern. The meds have brought me halfway out of hell as of the last couple months as well as the exercise I believe.
thats probably way more information then you need
Thanks
Noelle
