During approx 3 yrs on fluoxetine, I added about 20 lbs - not trivial to me going from 155 to 175 - 154 is my high limit for "normal" BMI. I really believe my exercise and eating didn't change and that it was the med causing weight gain, although nobody in the medical establishment wants to agree.
Now I've added metformin XR (for diabetes) and in 8 months lost about 15 of those lbs with again no real changes in exercise or eating.
Anybody with similar experience? I'm happy with the way I feel on proz, and have no side effects from the metformin.
