Oh my gosh, I noticed the weight loss within days!!! I am absolutely thrilled!! I'm now on 200mg, and I've gone from a size 14 to a size 10 pants. Can you say, "Happy, happy, happy?" I've always been a slim girl, around 105 pounds. After my gigantic babies (8' 6" and 9' 3"....I know...ouch!), I went back down to 105 pounds. But then I decided I didn't like the boney look, so decided to go up to 115-120 pounds. What a great size!!!!! I wouldn't ever want to go lower than that. My bones don't hurt people! Lol!!!!
I don't expect to get back down to 115 pounds, but I don't have a bathroom scale. All I know is that the pounds are definately coming off daily....and I'm constantly pulling my pants up!! But, alas, my breasts are getting smaller.
I would be happy to end up at 130 pounds. I'm actually starting a Stepper program tomorrow. I've been so inactive for the past couple of years. Thought I might have a heart attack with all this added weight!!! Lol! I gained over 50 pounds on Remeron. The Topamax just basically makes me forget to eat. So I drink water (don't want those dreaded kidney stones), cup of soups, Diet Pepsi, hard sugarless candy to suck on, oh and I'll indulge in a TV dinner from time to time. At some point I know my body is going to begin to feel hungry, so I'll have to figure out some sort of nutritional meal menu. For now, starvation is great! Lol.
Still freezing too.
