hey.
I can sympathise. I have been on a med for about 2 or 3 months now which also has the same side effect, and also increases your appetite, making you crave sweet things and carbs. It really sucks as I've put on just over a stone, and I am really sensitive about my weight and how I look. I am trying to be cool about it but it's making me feel quite down.
I would say that exercise is key. Try and get at least three heavy workout sessions per week. I am fairly active but can't motivate myself at the moment to do running or an equivalent form of exercise.
Sounds like you're eating all the right things though?
Eating every couple of hours is good as it keeps your metabolism going, and eating carbs and protein earlier in the day is meant to be better (not that I ever manage to do the latter!).
Good luck with it, yo-yo
