Hi Jay
I am only on Neurontin (600mg at night) at the moment so I cant answer about the ADS and weight gain as well as others here.
No one diet works for all, but I cant say enough about the low carb diet. Ihave been greatly helped and many people I know. Having said that, it seems like the men I know on it loose slower, but if they combine it with even a little excersize that seems to boost weight loss. It also has helped with mood stabilization for me. Atkins is fine but if you read that dont stop with that. There are many low carb scientists and authors out there. The Eades are my favorite authors. They are on the bleeding edge of this theory. My GP Doctor put me on this diet for my Fibromyalgia, the wieght loss was an additional benifit. He has put hundreds on it for everything, including hyper tension, diabetes type2, migraines, etcc.... it has helped them all.You should check with your doctor first whatever diet you choose. My husband is a vegitarian,so I know alot about that as well and it has helped his chorlesteral but he has found increased carb intake increasing his weight so he too is lowering carbs now. No small feat for a vegitarian. :)
Good luck
Peace
Ima
