How can you lose weight while on Lexapro?

I have to admit I feel silly for not checking this site earlier. Many answers have hit what I am feeling right on the nose. When I first started Lexapro, I lost 35lbs in a matter of months. I have now been on Lexapro for 18 months and in the last 4 to 5 months I have noticed a steady increase in my weight even with increased exercise and diet. I have especially noticed weight gain in my middle that has never been before. I am currently in the process of weaning off of Lexapro and hope to see the scale move downward again!!

Are you kidding me??? I have had a difficult problem losing all the weight i have gained over the years from paxil, etc... now i'm lexapro, haven't changed my diet and have actually increased my activity and still gained 5 pounds in 2 weeks... so for those who are struggling, i am too and i feel your pain!

And anyway. If you did your reasearch on Lexapro you would have seen that a lot of other people have the same results as me. Different strokes for different folks lady!!!
