Does the pill cause weightloss to be more difficult?

I'm currently on Brevinor.

I've been eating healthily for over 2 months and have lost about 7 lbs.
My weight hasn't shifted for about 3 weeks.

My friend of around the same weight has been losing weight at a normal rate and we eat about the same. Confused as to why this happening. My mum suggested maybe to do with the hormones in the pill?

What do you think?

    No...and you are losing at a good rate. 7lbs in 8 weeks is almost 1lb a week..and with 6lbs to go it should be at 1/2lb a week.

    Not losing weight in 3weeks is normal...as weight loss is not linear, you could be retaining water...cortisol levels could be high due to stress...ToM...

    But...I looked at your diary....and there are a lot of entries that are suspect...such as Misc calories 500...

    You could be eating more than you think
