Yes, this is both me.
Losing weight while on antipsychotics and antidepressants isn’t easy.
IF anything, a lot of people who are on medications have trouble losing weight.
But how did I do it?
It’s no secret, really.
I did take a tablet (medication) that helped reduce my appetite for a couple of years.
I cut back down on my sugar intake.
I drink lots of water.
As well as exercising four times a week.
I also like to snack throughout the day and reduce eating just three ‘big’ meals each day.
This journey of losing weight has/is a tough one.
Also, I don’t exercise to just lose weight now.
Losing weight is a BONUS to me.
What I want is to build strength, agility, endurance.
Wanting to look good and lose lots of weight is last on my list.
Really.
Cause I know having that mindset to only exercise in order to lose weight is not healthy for me.
