Klonopin, Anti Anxiety Medication and Weight Gain

So many people ask me, I can’t lose weight. One of my things is I asked them, are you on any anxiety medication? Many of the people I talk to say that they are. If anybody is on Klonopin, Abilify, Xanax, guess what? You’re shooting yourself in the foot. Abilify, you can gain 10 lb in the course of your treatment. Klonopin is the same way depending on what your dosage is. The higher the dose the higher the weight gain. That’s why I stay away from carbs when you are on anti-anxiety medication is critical. Eating carbs while being on anti-anxiety medication is a double sword. The longer that you are on anti-anxiety medication, to wean yourself off it’s always best to get your doctor’s advice. Right off the bat I’m not a fan of Ozempic! There are so many side effects with this medication. No Wonder people are losing weight! Let’s talk about the side effects shall we?! Heart palpitations, high heart rate, high blood pressure, power puking, and the reason why your power puking is because your digestive tract takes so long to digest food, that whatever you eat you’re going to bring it up. That’s why if you are on this and I highly recommend that you stop! You are not allowed to have anything greasy, fatty foods, this medication is lethal! The best way to lose weight, is to exercise regularly, you don’t have to spend hours in the gym, up your protein! You might want to try staying away from fruit for a while because it is still sugar. Reason why I do strictly carnivore/Keto.

Trial and error, I wanted to show another friend of mine if you have one frozen strawberry margarita it will be a four or five pound weight gain the next morning guarantee it, especially if you are carbohydrate intolerant. A lot of people giggle and say that they never heard of that. Well it’s true.. a doctor can swab you, and tell you right then and there if you are carb intolerant. I am 110%! So in the morning I had the leanest ground turkey 3 oz and one egg. I’m full I will not eat again until 5:00. Black coffee, and chug-a-lug on the water. There some days that I’m more hungrier than others and that’s cool, I just add more ground turkey, or fish and make a concoction of protein. If I want to add a vegetable I will do so, but it is a (green vegetable), spinach, lettuce, endive, kale… Keeps me satisfied keeps me full! If I want something hot I do drink a zero calorie zero carb chicken broth. They do sell it I have to be really careful and read the ingredients on everything. Some of you are vegetarian and that’s great! My body is crying out for protein so being carnivore / keto works for me. Depends on my day one day I might do strictly carnivore another day I might do Carnivore /Keto.. it just works. I’m finding out as well that I plateaued, when I was getting red meat so I switched over to fish and the leanest ground turkey and I’m having success again. A lot of trial and error it sucks.

If I want to snack I put kale in my air fryer and I make my own kale crisps. Season it with natural seasoning. I know carnivore people are really big on salt, I am not. I’m limiting my salt intake right now. As I said a lot of trial and error, I’m walking anywhere from 6 to 8 Miles a day, and enjoying my journey.
