Well, it's my second month on Depakote. I've gained about 7 pounds so far. I tried to diet, using the Richard Simmons Deal a Meal. The first day I realized I don't eat 1200 calories a day all the time. So I tried harder the next day and made it, but the next day I went over. Not TECHNICALLY, but I didn't measure, so I got larger portions than the card called for, which is the same thing as going over. I don't know what the line is for gaining "too much weight," which my neurologist said he would put me on something else if I gained too much.
I don't want to change meds again, but I don't want to go out and buy all new clothes, either. We'll see.
Well, this is going to be a short post, it being Thanksgiving Weekend. I hope everyone had a good Turkey Day. I know there are a lot of things I'm thankful for.
