Comment posted Weight gain- what could be causing it and how can I get the doctor to take it seriously? by Summer.
Zoloft can cause weight gain, but it usually levels out after you get used to it. Conversely, stopping it can also cause weight gain. Usually Zoloft doesn't cause as much weight gain as rapidly as you have reported. Ask your MD to check your Thyroid and explain that even if yours is borderline low you would like to try some syn-thyroid. It can help with your depression and your weight gain.

- Anti depressants do make you gain weight. I have recommended the program below to alot of people that helped maintain their weight whilst taking anti depressants after supporting my partner through a tough time, and being "ignored" by doctors. Anti depressants work as a barrier to lose weight. We came across this great program that does work and my partner has now stopped taking his antidepressants and replaced them with natural "good health" products. The problem we found with doctors is they hand them out like lollies and dont tend to focus on what is really going on for their patients. We never recommend to ignore doctors as we all need them, but we found doing our own research more helpful in finding what was best for us. With the research we did we found that there is not alot of information on how to come off the medication, but there is plenty about getting on it and the side effects are usually worse again and they can also be addictive.
This program is completely safe and healthy to be on whilst on medication and you are continuously supported along the way to make sure things are ok. If you are interested in more information have a look at www.naturalw8loss4u.info. It really helped my partner and some of my friends, and now i am on the program just for good health. Good luck.

But if you're exercising so much, part of your weigth gain is gonna be muscle, which weighs a lot more than fat. If you want to keep training, then switch over to more aerobic/endurance, that will lean you out a bit more
References : - Zolft can cause you to gain weight that is a known fact. if you are eating right and exercising like you say the weight should be coming off though.
two other reasons for the weight gain might be a thyroid problems – a blood test can check for that.
and PolyCystic Ovary Syndrom which is very common among women in you age group. this can be found by using Ultasound. It causes your body to store fat and not burn calories correctly and also you might have noticed a change in your periods.just two thoughts.

Try going to a different physician and explain the situation to him/her.

- Heart Rate Monitor?
Take a look at the Omron HR 100C heart rate monitor. It is one of the best selling heart rate monitors on Amazon. It is quite inexpensive at around $30 on Amazon and delivery is free. The Omron comes with a chest strap and a wrist watch. It is popular for people using a heart rate monitor for the first time.

Check out the cyclocomputers on Nashbar.com. They always have something going on. I have always liked Cateye. They have been around forever. I still use the wired computer I got back in the early 80s. Nashbar has the Cateye CC-HR200DW (heart rate/wireless) on sale for $140, or if you want to splurge, the Garmin GPS is less than $200. I have a separate GPS unit I can use for other things besides biking, but it is nice to have a all-in-one unit. Just knowing the elevation is helpful. The things you list that are necessary to you, you can get for around $40+ (regular price) or $25+ (on sale). Good luck.

They are not idiots, there is only ONE way to gain weight and ONE way to lose weight.
To gain weight, eat more calories than you use.
To lose weight, eat less calories than you use.
Nothing else matters, there is nothing in the universe that changes those two rules. Cut out the high calorie foods, count your calories so you average less than your recommended daily amount, and you will lose weight.
Chances are you don't realise just how many calories you are eating. Soft drinks alone contain around 200 calories per bottle. If you drink a bottle of vitamin water after 30 minutes on the treadmill, then you won't lose weight.

you should go to a psychiatrist. some anti-depressants do cause weight gain. he or she can change the medication and see. but dont stop the tratment. depression is a lousy thing to live with.
