[QUOTE="neednewtechnique, post: 152488, member: 3527"] Our difficult child used to take concerta when they thought she was ADHD, and the medication kept her weight down a lot too. She would eat like a PIG and not gain an ounce. She is 5 feet 6 inches tall, and at that point only weighed about 100 pounds. Since the medication has been gone, she has gained a little weight, not much, but now she looks a lot closer to "normal". The doctor told us that we needed to make sure she got lots of carbs (the "good" kind of carbs) and protein. Make eggs whenever they will eat them, peanut butter on toast instead of regular toast, and as much red meat as they can stand. There are the suggestions we were given, but we didn't get much chance to try it out becuase it wasn't long after that when they discontinued that medication. Hope this helps you!! [/QUOTE]
