Lose weight going off pill ? Posted: 01-05-08 20:55pm
Since sometimes women gain weight when
they start using the pill does that mean
that when you go off if you may lose some
weight?

I don't know. I haven't really gained
weight on birth control; my body just kind
of adjusted. (bigger boobs -lol!). I think
it really comes down to diet and excercise
regardless.

I gained weight on one type of birth
control, (20 pounds in seven months!) And
it didn't come off easy, I had to diet and
exercise and I am still working it all
off, over a year later.

Ha ha me too! I gained weight with the
shot (I think) and now that I've switched
I seem to lose a couple lbs here and there
as the past year has gone by. But now I'm
going to start watching what i eat and do
my tae bo I got for christmas. I'm so out
of shape! I've done it 2 times since I got
it and can't do again for awhile cause I
hurt so bad!!

I gained 40 pounds on one pill...it didnt
come off easy...actually it hasnt come off
completely...so i ballooned from 130 to
170 in about 3 months.
Good news is i just stopped bc and i lost
12 pounds. I have stopped bc in the past
and have lost anywhere from 5-15 pounds.
