Was anyone able to avoid weight gain/bloating while taking birth control? How did you do it? I realize that everyone reacts differently to the different types of pills, but I'm just curious to hear from those who still had successful weight loss while on the pill.

    I lost 56 pounds while on the pill. Didn't effect me at all. The pill might make you more hungry but if you still pay attention to what you're eating you shouldn't have a problem losing.

    I gained 40lbs on it and it made me hungry like no other, and that was with working out.
    It just didn't do good to my body.

    I've done neuvaring for 10 years! Low dose hormones and no side effects! I will never take the pill again esp after a decade on Neuvaring!

    I put on weight when I first went on it, but then i lost about 27 lbs. I suppose all pills effect people in different ways. Maybe if its difficult for you ask your doctor if there are any different pills you can go on? x
