I went to the Doctor on Friday for my yearly and got bad news x3.
I am having lapro surgery again (last time 2 years ago) and then dh gets to put his sample in a cup for testing, and the kicker was that I have gained 15 lbs since January. (so on top of the 20 that I wanted to loose, I get to try and loose 35) My doctor explained to me that it was from getting off of the pill, that some women actually loose weight on the pill and now that I am off, I am blowing up like a balloon!

Has anyone else experienced this? It is really depressing, I cant fit in my clothes and I hate looking in the mirror.
I started a dance class to help but I dont even like going to that cause I am uncomfortable with the way I look.

Same thing happened to me - I went up 2 sizes when I went off the pill

Yup...I've been off BCP since February and have gained 10 pounds. I think 5 of them were from the Provera (I wanted to eat anything/everything within sight!), but I used to be able to drop a few pretty easily, and I have not been able to even shed one!

Happened to me too! I just plain feel fat now!

For me I lost weight right away however over time I have gained it all back.

I am sorry you got all that bad news in one day. Things will get better I promise. Good luck!
