STRESSED!!
Posted: 03-23-08 10:16am

I am so stressed out right now with my weight guys. Does anyone now if tricyclen makes you gain weight? What are some of your experiences with this pill? I was on Alesse before and didn't.

I have gained 5 lbs back. I just started the pill a couple weeks ago and feel like I am going backwards. I am quitting taking it, I have to get this weight off. I was doing good, but not aymore.

I am 115-120 prepregancy, and I weigh 145 now. Suck a blow to my ego. yes, my baby is 9 weeks old....but i figured it would be better this time. The weather isn't helping, I haven't been able to et out for walks yet....

aaahaahhhh

I'm pretty sure most bc pills can make you gain weight.

Once the summer time hits, you'll lose it in no time!

I've seen pictures of you post-pregnancy, Sam. You look amazing!! Don't get down on yourself. He's only 9 weeks old.

I know the high hormone BC methods help in gaining weight. It's usually just water weight though, meaning if you switch to a low hormone BC pill, it'll probably come off (not all of it but it'd help).

Just do side steps. If you do it for 15minutes, it's supposed to be equivalent to a half mile or something. Do it while watching TV, the time will fly, trust me.
