Not sure if I posted about this before but I have noticed since I bumped up to 54mgs I don't want to eat anywhere near as much.May not be a bad thing.save money on food and bring my weight down to what it should be.Or close.anyone else experience weightloss while on Concerta?
Yes, I have seen Concerta reduce my appetite quite a bit and I seem to have lost some weight. My wife says she noticed a little more definition in my jaw line today. It hasn't made me forget to eat and I am not starving myself. It just makes it less tempting to have seconds.
BTW, I have been on Concerta for approximately a month and am still searching for the best dosage level. I'll save that for another post.
Good luck...and for G-dsakes eat something.
Please/// I want you to know that weight loss does NOT equal fat loss. I lost 15 lbs when I started Concerta. All that loss was mostly muscle and water. Luckily I gained all that back when my appetite came back.

for me concerta has never made me lose weight. Simply all it did was give me the ability to stop eating when bored or impulse related eating. I have never been overweight or concerned about it . One thing I will say is that it has given me the ability to make better decisions to eat healthy , exercise , and drink water , and keep me focused at work and life-
I can see that.I don't stop at the fast food joing but would rather eat something that's better for me.I guess I would say the ability to focus better has started helping me make better choices too.Last night I noticed I was full quicker when before I was sure I would just keep eating and end up sick later on
