Im really battling with my low mood partly because of my weight at the moment.

It seems that the Quetiapine that I take for stability of my BiPolar and anxiety can increase appetite and since being on a recovery I have put on 20 kgs :/ my weight rising from 98 to 118 kg

I have never been slim but my gut hang etc is really getting to me, Im trying many things to cut my snacking but with lower mood it means that I also comfort eat a bit ...............

Im trying to replace 'junk' snacks with stuff like rice cakes & fruit which is partly working but rice cakes taste like cardboard !!!!

any thoughts?
