A member asked:
Why cant i lose weight gained after stopping zyprexa, after three years? i know that its the pill because i stopped abilify and the weight started to come off. i lost 60 pounds?

Weight = calories eaten/drank -calories burned. Use the app Cronometer to see what you are eating and burning and the reason for weight gain will be clear. Almost always more calories goin in than being burned.
