Hi Sara,

Based on my research, "changes in weight" is listed as a general side effect of Sertraline. This could mean that it causes your weight to fluctuate up or down without any prior warning.

Because this side effect can be unpredictable, it's not really something you can control outside of what you're already doing (exercising regularly and eating well). If it were me, I'd probably be focused on a lower fat diet and cutting out all refined sugars to help combat it as much as possible. But one can only do so much when the medication you're taking is going against your very efforts.

You can learn more about this drug on the page for Sertraline Details

I hope this info helps!
