Pill and weightloss
Since I started on the Pill I've gone from being 7st 10 to 8st10!
Is there anyway I can go about losing this weight? If I come off it, will it automatically come off? I feel rubbish about the way I look, and as much as my boyfriend and I need the pill as contraception, I feel totally unattractive doing anything anyway. Any help?

Ach yes. I've put on weight as well since I started on the Pill 
I feel rubbish too but so far I haven't found anyway particular way to lose it. I went through a period a while ago where I ate much more healthily - a LOT of celery! And it worked! Until celery got boring. Now I've taken up swimming but so far the effects have yet to show...

I put weight on when i started taking it too, but after a few months i went back to normal. If you haven't been on it for very long i would suggest just trying to eat healthily and see how it goes after a little while longer.

I'm also going on holiday next week, bikini, yuck. I need a quick fix! I'm thinking celery diet til then, drastic and unhealthy but I need it!Reply 4

I'm thinking celery diet til then, drastic and unhealthy but I need it!I'm not 100% sure but I have noticed that I am a VERY hungry person - more so than most people!! It's actually very annoying! And I've been on the pill for3 years! I'm going on holiday in 2 weeks as well! Celery diet for me too - good luck!

Hmm maybe you could ask your doc to try a different pill? dont know if they would do that for weight but it might be worth trying if it is gettin you down. But tbh even 8st 10 isnt bad!

That's very true. I'm 5'11" and I weigh an ungodly amount compared to you.

It's all gone to the boobs and tummy though.
It's not morbidly obese or anything, but compared to the size I used to be, it's depressing. I'm also only about 5 ft 2 heightwise, so it's not really that light for my height. And to make matters worse, none of my clothes fit me properly! I need them to fit, I can't afford to buy new clothes because the pill's made me heavier!Reply 10
I wish it would go to my boobs Lol *cries* i just got fat legs!!! How about some toning exercises?? i do cheerleading exercises because they are fab to just tone the muscles without being too strenous, might make you feel better?

LOL! Oh my...I agree with History; I wish mine went to my boobs!!!! It all goes to my tummy and thighs I need to tone them up but really I have no idea how. I'm hoping swimming is good for my tummy and legs?!

There's absolutely nothing wrong with 8 stone 10 - unless, of course, you're about four feet tall.

I put on weight too I've hated it. I'm now overweight for my little height and it's gotten me down quite a bit. I seem to have put it on everywhere. I have a tummy I hate, I put on so much weight so quickly on my thighs that I have hideous stretch marks and my boobs have grown which I just find annoying really.

I've gone from a 30B to a 32D
But I used to have a completely flat tummy, now...I think I could pass for a newly pregnant woman/middle aged man with a beer belly. Although that's partly due to doing no exercise for about 3 months due to a-levels. It's not bad at all through clothes, more bikinis and underwear. Apparently a tan's meant to make the tummy look thinner, so I'm starting applying the Holiday Sun tonight in preparation for this holiday, but I think I'd need a pretty dark tan to draw the attention away.

Both times ive been on the pill ive gained weight! half a stone, and then a stone! its due to water retention and as soon as you come off it, you lose the excess weight. i was complaning about it to the doctor today but he basically said...what wld u prefer, a baby, or a little extra weight!? and that shut me up lol. so im at my lightest weight now as im not on the pill anymore, but as of tomorrow i will be again...oh the joys. the weight went to my BOOBS as well and i really hope it doesnt again because they never actually shrank again when i came off it :-( and dont want them bigger! im praying maybe this time i wont put on weight.....
