    Exercise (aerobic or resistance training or both) is important. Medical marijuana may be useful.

  2. We are battling it ourselves. My wife lost 40 pounds - and she's a petite person - after treatment. She has since gained 17 pounds thanks to the creator of the CUSP9 protocol.

    He told me to put her on Remeron, 15mg per day to start, and then up to 30mg. We did that and that made her ravenous and she has been eating steadily, and becoming more clearheaded, ever since.

    I would absolutely look into getting your person on remeron asap.

    Among anti-depressants, it's notorious for weight gain. It also causes drowsiness, which can be good or bad.

    1. My wife - who has gone days without eating - now wakes me up at 4AM demanding food. At least for us, it's changed our lives: http://loganlo.com/2016/06/hoping-for-good-changes-to-come.html
