Q: Weight Loss While On Birth Control

Ok, I was taking ovcon 35 birth control and the whole time I was on the pill I was losing weight. I had to stop taking it about 8 months ago cuz it was a little too pricey for me at the time. Since I have been off of it I have gained almost all of my weight back. I was just wondering if anyone has lost weight while on birth control. I know everyones body reacts differently, but I was just curious. One of my friends is on the same pill and she has been losing weight too. I was just curious about it. If anyone has any info on it let me know. Thanx!!
