How do I still get proper nutrition on Ritalin?
I was put on Ritalin la 10mg twice a day 2 weeks ago and have already lost 7.5 lbs. I do need to lose a little weight so it's exciting but it curbs my appetitie so much I'm really not getting the nutrients I need. :/
My job is fast paced and I don't always get a lunch (day spa and salon) and it's SO easy to forget to eat on it. Any suggestions or experience? I've always taken a multivitamin.

Stimulants like that can ruin appetite. A lot of the people that take them think they have to take them on a regular basis or they won't work, and that is true with certain types of medicines, but not stimulants. You can limit their use to days/times when you need their effects, when studying, etc., and not take them at times when you don't truly need them. There are two big advantages to this. 1) They will work better when you DO decide to take them, 2) Your appetite and sleep will be more normal.
The vitamin is a good idea, no matter what you decide.
