Experiencing Weight Loss With The Medicine Topamax?

I just started it for reasons other than weight loss but heard that is a major side effect. Has anyone lost a lot of weight on it? how much and how fast? I’m a bit nervous about it.

    I have kinda lost track of what I have lost and when, but according to my chart I weighed 255 pounds in November. I am 6 foot 1 inch male so that is well into the obese range, and when I was weighed at the doctor last week I weighed 195 pounds. That is 60 pounds and I didn’t purposely make any effort whatsoever to lose weight or change my eating habits. I simply do not have any time–day or night–when I feel hungry and the majority of my calories comes from pepsi and oreo cookies and not even enough of that because I weigh less and less every time I get on the scale. It was sorta slow because my doctor started the dosage very small and built it up to prevent side effects,so I didn’t fully stop eating until my dose got up to a substantial level. If this doesn’t stop I am going to have to start drinking ensure because I am going to die if I try to live off soda and cookies for much longer.
