Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below I am on Ritalin right now for my ADHD, and I have gained definition in about 2 weeks, but I was wondering that due to the fact that Ritalin suppresses appetite a great deal, am I losing muscle mass because of this, or has my body been tricked into thinking it is full so it only eats away adipose tissue, sort of like what leptin does? I would like to lose my bodyfat but I don't want to lose muscle, I need a workout and diet to help me keep my muscle mass, Please Help, Email Me at [email protected]

How many calories are you eating on a daily basis? As long as you keep calories high enough, the Ritalin won't interfere with or hinder muscle gain. But it also won't promote fat loss or mimic the effects of leptin.
Eat 500 calories over maintenance and gradually increase from there until you're satisified with weekly gains. Lift hard and you'll keep existing mass at the very least.
