> My doctor started me on Topamax about 3 months ago to supplement a new migraine medicine i was trying out. He told me that the bonus to using Topamax would be that I would find myself losing "a great deal of weight" (his exact words).
When I got up to 300 mg a day, I noticed the migraines were MUCH less frequent and I had already lost 20 lbs (in about 2 months time). >May I ask a question?
What were you eating in those 2 months?
Lettuce leaves only? And 23 hours of exercise a day? Eating normally but sensibly? Eating 3 meals a day? Eating anything? Just curious how this thing makes you lose....Im now at 200mgs a day and eating maybe 1-2 meals a day but Im 3/4 disabled from an accident so exercise is not a poss. Thanks.
Oh! This is open to anyone who's lost on Topamax.
Cheers
