I really hope your not seriously asking that, but in case you are I'll answer it.....

Adderall's active ingredients are racemic amphetamine and dextroamphetine. Amphetamines are powerful stimulants capable of greatly inducing sympathetic nervous sytem responses. The result of this is an extremely decreased appetite and high metabolism. Both of those result in weight loss. Adderall is prescribed to some people who are morbidly obese as a means of making them lose weight.

How long does it take to lose weight from ssri medications?

You don't lose weight on SSRIs, you gain, and some some cases much. This is not absolute however. Prozac (fluoxamine) may not cause weight gain at all but Paxil/Seroxat (paroxetine) may cause significant. In very special situations however, where increased appetite is psychogenic, you might lose weight, as the psychological benefit will overrun the chemical side effects. There is no time frame.
