AppetitešŸ‘ŽšŸ¼

So, just started Mydayis on Monday and my appetite has left the building. I was diagnosed a few months ago so this is only the second med Iā€™ve tried, first stimulant, works great so far besides the appetite loss. Any one have tips for improving appetite? I recently lost a lot of weight out of nowhere so Iā€™m not too stoked on the idea of losing more, any tips and tricks welcome!

At least your doc gave it, i've been begging to change to this from Vyvanse 50mg for half a year, and never get a yes.

Maybe try a different medication if you can - different types may not have the same side effects Otherwise, eat a big breakfast before you take your meds. Make the food while you're on your meds, because if you only get hungry when the meds wear off, you might have trouble making food then. If you're eating less then it's important to eat proper meals when you have a chance.

I lost 10 lbs a few mos after starting Adderall. I second the big breakfast comment. Choose a high Calorie nutrient dense snack like almonds during the day. My appetite improved gradually but still isnā€™t what it once was.

Not what you're looking for?
