Part of my struggle with depression right now is aound weight. I've lost 50-60 lbs in the last year and am hanging right around the low limit of acceptable weight. Me (and my doctor) are concerned that I don't lose more.
I'm taking 100 mg Wellbutrin and 100 mg Strattera right now, and these may be affecting this - a side effect of Wellbutrin can be weight loss and a side effect of Strattera can be appetite suppression.
However, I still get hungry, but tend to ignore it or go out and buy a quick burger. Any ideas about how to change this? Quick snacks I can keep around that are healthy & not sweet? (I've been eating protein bars fro breakfast and they are way too sweet).
any feedback appreciated.

Force yourself to eat fatty foods. Lots.

Sorry if it's confusing here, but Psycho-Babble is the board for medication-related issues. Here's a link:
