I have been on Celexa for 4 months now. At first, I lost about 6-8lbs. But just a few weeks ago I began to put on weight fast. I noticed that my appetite was out of control. I was informed by my doctor that such a low dosage (20mg) wouldn't cause such a reaction. But unfortunately I have gained about 15lbs in a matter of 3-4 weeks. I exercise regularly, but find that I barely have the energy to get thought the workouts, and when I get home, all I want to do is eat. Does anybody know how to lose weight while being on Celexa?
I have the same symptoms as you from celexa. I've also gained 15 pounds, I exhusted all the time. I'll I can do is eat and sleep. I do feel less axious and happy but is it really worth it with these side effects.
I was on Celexa for a year and gained about 2 stone, which I was really quite unhappy about. I have now been off it for a year and I have lost over a stone, but not all of the weight, it has taken a long time and it has been hard work! I don't want to put you off as it may not be as bad for you, but no-one told me at the time and I would have appreciated the warning.
All I can advise is the usual - healthy eating, keep the carbs down and exercise regularly.
Good luck
