Hi-
I'm new to this particular board, but glad I found it. I think logging in every day will be a big help! I've been struggling with IBS for a yearh & a half. I seem to have finally found the "magic" combination for me which includes Wellbutrin, Elavil and Celexa. Unfortunately the Elavil & Celexa are both known to cause weight gain. I've been taking the Elavil for a while now and gained 15 pounds. I started the Celexa 3 weeks ago. My goal is not to gain anymore weight, which I've been able to do so far.
I also have back & shoulder problems but have found The Gazelle machine is a lifesaver - no impact exercise. I try to do this for 35 minutes 4x a week, and stretch everyday.
I cut HFCS out of my diet about the same time I started taking Celexa and that's been VERY helpful. I miss my soda though!!
Today I had:
malt o meal w/ light soy milk
english muffin w/ honey
health valley blueberry cobbler bar
2 servings veggie chips
juice spritzer
turkey & black bean chili
small piece cornbread
dole fruit bar
waaayyy too many nilla wafers
have a good weekend!
