For what it is worth, I was on Celexa for 8 months for acute anxiety/depression and lost 20 pounds. Once I quit I gained most of it back. Mostly because after I quit Celexa I had such a terrible craving for sweets, mostly chocolate covered blueberries(which are also really expensive). I haven't really been able to lose that 20 pounds with exercise, since I still have such a terrible craving for sweets. I noticed with Celexa, that I didn't need to eat, I never got hungry or that awful low blood sugar level shaky thing that can happen to me.
I am going to try this Atkins diet and see what happens. My only concern is triggering my tendency towards depression/anxiety, by withdrawing from sugar.
Anyways, everyone is different with AD's, some loose lots of weight, some gain. My sister lost 60 pounds on prozac.
