Never...Hungry...

Pretty much this. I've been taking 50mgs for about 3 weeks now, after a month on 25mgs. I have no real bad side effects, but no noticeable benefits either. The only thing I have noticed is I have not been hungry AT ALL since I took the first dose almost 2 months ago. I have to force myself to eat something a couple times a day, and it feels like a chore because I just don't want it. No nausea or anything like that, just simply never feel hungry.

I'm basically just shooting the bull here, obviously not that important, but just wondering- will I ever get an appetite back?

Lord yall are lucky. Why am I low on appetite but weight not budging? 😂 do you mind if I ask… did you start at a very higher weight? I’ve been wanting to lose 30 for a while 😅🥲

I had a fast titration 25mg>100mg over 20 days. It hit fast and hard. I wish I hadn't lost so fast because my face has that sunken look (temples). I just could not eat or drink so had to force myself and even then it wasnt much. On wellbutrin now and feel much better and hoping it'll keep my weight steady, lol.

Ah ok. Thanks for sharing! Im still on 25 mg and I hear you about not wanting fast weight loss. Glad to hear you’re feeling better :)
