I'm not sure about melting away fat. You never know where the fat will disappear from, perhaps the brain or from round the heart or kidneys. We need fat but perhaps not the spare tyre.
For me there are two side effects that seem to come with most ADs:
Weight gain
sexual dysfunction (loss of libido, anorgasmia)
In clinical trials I think the sex thing was hugely under-reported, whereas the weight gain was obvious.
OTOH, as I was seriously depressed I took Nardil and now put up with the side-effects. I'm 60 so being off the sexual circuit perhaps isn't that important, but for a young person it could be disastrous
