So, um- I'm giving up slowly here....
If you, my dear, are a failure then we all might as well jump off the bridge or put a bullet in our heads - cause you continue to inspire all around.
You are in the process of successing - remember that. Sure you will hit the bumps in the road and wonder WTF but it's better than being done.
So....could it be the meds? Sure. If you wanna try and cut back that's fine - be cautious with that. Cause being overly depressed and/or drinking and/or sabotaging yourself further would be just as if not worse, bad.
Hang in there and keep us posted (or at least just me cause I'm nosey!)

Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses. 
Jen,
I have seen your previous post about your weight gain and have not jump on the boards to give you my 2 cents. But here it is anyway. I know that you have been fighting depression and when I saw you last time at the Saturday meeting you were so emotional and my heart went out to you. BUT please don't give up. You truly inspired me to do better. You might not remember me but when I first started coming to the meeting you were running marathons and posting that you went out and bought new clothes.
Have you thought maybe its you anti-depressant meds that might be making you gain some of this weight back?? I know this because my mom just had a complete mental breakdown just before Thanksgiving 2008. She was in friends hospital for a mental evaluation for 5 days and now she is finally stabilized and her face is so puffy and she has literally gained 20lbs since Christmas without eating badly. Just a thought talk to your doctor and please keep us in the loop. We truly care about you and I am worried about you.
**Hugs coming your way**

People comment on my over 100 pound weight loss and attribute it to my WILLpower, but it is my WANTpower: I WANT to be thin and healthy more than anything else!
You are welcome. Please take care of yourself. I am with you about no excuses but it sounds like you are getting there. Hang in there and I know its easier said then done but don't chain yourself to the scale.
Vent and cry as much as you want. We will be here for you. Take Care:)
