    I'm actually worried about this myself. I've lost around 20 pounds in almost 4 weeks.. I've restarted working out again and am doing cardio six days a week but the weight loss just feels excessive. I weighed 190(86KG) pounds and I now weigh 170(77).. I try to eat but I must be doing something wrong.

      Hi - Just curious how things ended up with the weight loss?

      I have been on Sertraline for 10 weeks now and have lost nearly a stone and a half and I was pretty thin to start with.
