Has anyone put on a lot of weight since being on AD’s and if so when you came off them how easy was the weight to shift? Any comments appreciated

    Hi, this has been my big issue with sertraline , I’ve put on 2 stone .

    I have never been so heavy I’m my life and I’m 39 with 3 kids. 

    I’ve been tapering off over the last year. I was only ever on 50mg now take 25mg ever other day, but the Waight is still here 😥. I have been dieting really hard this last week and have lost 4lbs . But I literally have to have no more than 800 kcal a day and walk quite a bit for that to happen. Anyone else with info would be great .

    I've only been on Sertraline for 5 weeks but I haven't gained weight. I was calorie counting any way to lose weight and have managed to carry on (sometimes it's hard to want to eat! that's new to me). I've lost 1lb a week so far (making 74 in total).
