Im down 5 pounds... Since last tuesday. Yes soda doesnt taste good at all... I dont drink it.. I have an unquenchable thirst for water... Which is great i love water anyway.. At first i was kinda munching and it slowed down now im eatin one meal a day at dinner basically because thats when i remember to eat and by then im hungry... Im not n 50mgs i take at night before bedtime.. Now i know its for head aches funny enough i kinda been getting headaches but not severe n i think its cuz i have been under stress lately.. And not wearing my glasses... Lol but im seriously happy... Because ive been stuck at 265 -268 for months like 6 months now.. And im at 262 this morning.

I take topiramate for migraines and as a mood stabilizer and I've never had issues with hair loss. I have generilazed anxiety disorder anyway so if it makes me anxious I can't tell

I read the OP's earlier posts just now. It appears that she has not had WLS and is not trying to get WLS. She is trying to lose enough weight to get a tummy tuck.

Thought that might clear up some of the confusion.

I just started taking topamax this past week, I started at 25 mg at bedtime and now I'm at 50 mg but I haven't noticed any difference in appetite yet. in also on Wellbutrin 300 mg per day as well

Topamax gave me the worst side effects, super intense heartburn and my hands and feet were tingling and going numb. It worked a little but the side effects were bad for me
