sukik 59 Posted October 7, 2014 I take Abilify and am being sleeved at the end of the month. My metabolism has virtually shut down with this medication. Does anyone out there take Abilify? How has your weight loss been? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ldg 17 Posted October 7, 2014 I take Abilify, too. I am preop, but have managed to lose 19 pounds with a strict diet and exercise program. Weight loss is very hard on this medication, but possible. Wishing you all the best! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
#9grammy 274 Posted October 7, 2014 Wow I sure didn't know Abilify will do that to you. I take it twice a day, have only been able to lose 9 pounds in 6 months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

#9grammy 274 Posted October 7, 2014 I've not talked with the surgeon yet about my medications. I'm on theophylline time release for my lungs and I know that is a metabolism downer. Found that out when I had my stress test, but they did get my heart rate up for 6 min and then said it was enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
