[QUOTE="totoro, post: 282185, member: 3155"] Yes we battle with this. :( All of the AP's have been a nightmare for us. We are having to limit calories and portions, we are trying to not have to add another medication to help with weight. We have always eaten healthy but it hasn't helped. So now we are having to limit portions. I am trying to make sure K gets her 3 meals a day and then 2 snacks. We are doing all healthy low fat low sugar etc. Veggies, fruits, nuts (no salt etc) cheese. I will put the amount she can have on a little plate for her snack and that is it. I am trying to teach her about listening to her body, not to eat out of boredom or because she is eating to fast and not realizing that she may be full. It is not a lot of fun and it makes me very sad to have to do this. But she doesn't like the way she looks, so someone has to help her and do it with her. Everything we have tried so far has not worked and this is where we are at now. This is with exercise on top of it. I hope the AP's slow down for your difficult child. K is only on 5mg of Abilify.
