Hi I'm new to the atkins approach and wanted to know if anyone knows whether ATKins works when one is taking Zoloft (SSRI).

Most of the weight gain seems to have come from taking Zoloft and even with lots of exercise I have not lost any weight.

Any special considerations given that right now I can not stop Zoloft?

Hi,
I am currently taking Celexa at a pretty potent level. Celexa is in that ssri family of medication along with Zoloft.
I've been on Atkins about a week and have not gotten a positive result on the sticks, but seem to feel better with my food cravings more under control and a 1/2 pound drop in weight. I think I am somewhat gorging on protein and am trying to think about ways to control it. It's all so new.
Hope this finds you well and in good spirits. Let me know how things are working for you.
Richard
