    You don't need a miracle, just a calorie deficit :)

    How long was this migraine? Pretty sure you'll just be retaining fluid.... unless it went for a number of days where you also cumulatively involuntarily ate 3500 calories over your maintenance a bunch of times...

    No such thing as miracles, but hard work can get you back down! I do hope your migraines give you a break so you can concentrate on the rest of you!

    I suffer from migraines as well.....try and get your doc to change your medication....they are usually willing to help out especially if you have side effects....such as extreme weight gain

    maybe think about actively TRYING to lose weight instead of hoping for a miracle....

    Miracles are rare. You're much more likely to have success if you reduce what you eat.

    Calorie deficit.

    I have chronic migraines. The medicine didn't make you fat. It likely increased your appetite and you ate more food as a result. Talk to your doctor. There are other medications, other methods of treating chronic migraine, and other calcium channel blockers available.

    Regardless, a miracle is not what you need. You need to eat less food.
