I’ve never heard of anyone gaining weight after coming off meds, but sure have when they were on them.
My suggestion. Take a good hard look at what she is eating. Too much sugar, too much fat? Too many calories? For as good as I eat, I have to watch my calorie load. You may want to take a look at the Weight Watchers program. I’ve had success with that in the pass.
She’ll have to do some type of exercise to help get her metabolism going. You may want to think about walking or a stationary bike (good idea Dag) or how about swimming or water aerobics. It’s been now reported that in order for one to lose weight they have to do 60 - 90 minutes of vigorous exercise a day. Think about weight training.
There are some supplements on the market (one - a - days) that have stuff in them to bring up one’s metabolism - but I question whether or not they are actually snake oil.
You could also try going to your doctor or to a nutritionist.
Some web sites to check out for ideas - www.weightwatchers.com, www.hussman.org (to the fitness link), www.physiquetransformation.com, www.bodyforlife.com
So good luck and please let us know how you and your wife are doing.
