[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 543485, member: 11791"] Is the problem the number of calories going in? or that the medication changes his metabolic rate? Some medications drive hunger, which drives the weight gain. In this case, there are other medications that may be added to the mix, which have an appetite-suppression side-effect to counter-balance the appetite-increase side-effect. However... if the calories going IN are not out of line - if the problem is metabolic rate rather than calories... then I really don't know. Have you kept a food diary? Do you really know how many calories he is taking in? [/QUOTE]
