How can I stop from gaining weight on birth control?

Gary Frazier — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 03:27:22 +0000

I recently started on birth control, Reclipsen to be exact, and I’m a bit worried because one of the side effects is weight gain. I’m already over weight and trying to lose weight, so I’m worried. I eat healthy, exercise, and am doing well with my diet. However, will the pill stop my weight loss, or just make me gain weight anyways? This is my first time on birth control, so… Yeah, haha.

A lot of that weight gain is water weight. It helps to drink a lot of water to flush your system out. Steer clear of sweets, salt, and heavy carbs like potatos and bread. This may help you http://www.ehow.com/how_2104479_lose-water-weight-caused-birth.html and this http://www.ehow.com/how_2300893_control-gain-birth-control-pills.html

It’s still less weight than you’d gain if you got pregnant.

How can I control my weight online?

I am searching for a web where I can check my weight periodically and see the evolution (and hopefully how I am losing weight) you now any web page I can use for that?

Something where I can control the evolution of my weight, at the moment I am writing it in a paper but I guess there are better ways than that.

Thanks!

There’s a website where you can track your weight and get a graph.

It’s very useful because you get also stats, calendars with each day weight, the BMI index, etc.

The website name is Trackingo

Hope that helps and give me the 5 stars, plz!

How do I control weight gain and emotions on birth Control?

Gary Frazier — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 13:07:27 +0000

I am thinking about trying out birth control again for a variety of reasons but I am scared because the last time I did I gained a lot of weight and I became very emotional. I wanted to know if this had happened to any other women and if so what did you find helped or what brand did you switch to that works better.

My doctor confirmed for me that birth control only makes you gain weight because the hormones make you want to eat more. Learn portion control and make sure that you eat slowly and drink a glass of water at the start of every meal.

I buy cat food for hairball and weight control but 1 cat still throws up & other 2 are not losing weight-why?

Gary Frazier — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 13:13:22 +0000

My cats are 3, 6 and 9 years old. They are all neutered males and are the best cats ever! I hate it that the one still has a problem and throws up about 3 times a week. I use IAMS weight and hairball control dry food for all 3 cats.

The weight control food is like feeding diet potato chips, it won’t work while starving the cats of nutrients
There are more hairballs this time of year due to cats shedding their coats
Please start feeding them all proper food for the species. With 3 cats you can get the best 12 1/2 oz cans of wellness for about $2.50 which is as cheap as fancy feast
Nutrition since there are so many bad things out there is very important to your cat’s health
Contrary to what you may have heard; dry foods are not a great thing to feed a cat.
Please read the label on what you are feeding? What are the ingredients? Do you know what they mean? Is the first ingredient a muscle meat like chicken or meal or other things?

Dry foods are the number 1 cause of diabetes in cats as well as being a huge contributing factor to kidney disease, obesity, crystals, u.t.i’s, constipation, and a host of other problems. Male cats are especially prone to blockages
from dry food. Food allergies are very common when feeding dry foods. Rashes, scabs behind the tail and on the chin are all symptoms The problems associated with Dry food is that they are loaded with grains and carbohydrates which many cats (carnivores) cannot process. ( Have a fat cat?)
An even bigger problem is that it IS dry and it dehydrates no matter how much your cat drinks
Most of the moisture a cat needs is suppose to be in the food. Cats are not naturally big drinkers.
95% of the moisture is zapped out of dry foods in the processing. Think about it.
Another thing, most use horrible ingredients and don’t use a muscle meat as the primary ingredient and use vegetable based protein versus animal. Not good for an animal that has to eat meat to survive.

http://www.catinfo.org/#My_Cat_is_Doing_…

You want to pick a canned food w/o gravy (gravy=carbs) that uses a muscle meat as the first ingredient and doesn’t have corn at least in the first 3 ingredients if at all.
THE BEST CAT FOODS CONTAIN NO GRAINS NO BYPRODUCTS
Cats are meat eaters not cereal or rice eaters
Fancy feast is a middle grade food with 9lives, friskies whiskas lower grade canned and wellness and merrick upper grade human quality foods. I would rather feed a middle grade canned food then the top of the line dry food.
Also, dry food is not proven to be better for teeth. Does a hard pretzel clean your teeth or do pieces of it get stuck in between.

Vetinarian diets The reason your vet thinks so highly of the pet food they sell probably has more to do with money than nutrition. In vet school, the only classes offered on nutrition usually last a few weeks, and are taught by representatives from the pet food companies. Vet students may also receive free food for their own dogs and cats at home. They could get an Iams notebook, a Purina purse and some free pizza. http://iml.jou.ufl.edu/projects/Spring04…

How can I loose weight on birth control?

Gary Frazier — Wed, 02 Jun 2010 04:03:07 +0000

Ever since I started birth control a year ago I have gained 10 pounds! Help! How do I loose some weight? Looking to loose at least 5 pounds.
Please reframe from lectures about the affects of Birth Control. I know the risks and I also know the benefits.

ignore her. Its better than having a baby when your not ready, and those are not as "common" as she’s saying. Yes, its possible but it takes discipline. BC makes your appetite increase hence the weight gain. You need a healthy diet and exercise it might also help to increase your fiber and protein and drink more water. That would decrease your appetite plus take a multi vitamin and appetite suppressant to get rid of cravings.

Can astrology help with things like weight control and quitting smoking?

Astrologically speaking, what planets, houses and aspects would this involve?

All astrology can do is pinpoint a good time when you can start these endeavors and will get more success.

Why does everyone say that you gain weight on Birth Control?

Gary Frazier — Sat, 01 May 2010 00:39:39 +0000

Why does everyone say that you gain weight on birth control? How is that possible, because the only 2 things that make you gain weight are food & being lazy… I know that birth control makes you hungry but just because you’re hungry doesn’t mean that you’re going to gain weight…So i don’t get it?!

P.S. Also, if you’re flat chested and you start BC do your breast get bigger? And how..What makes this happen?

Hormones and conditions such as insulin resistance and metabolic disorder can affect your weight. Your metabolism is also the thing that controls how many calories you burn in a day and ultimately how much you weigh. There are only SOME birth control pills that make you gain weight. Like I said I lost weight. It stabilized my hormones that were making gain weight. Also I maybe those women just were not on the right ones. You also have to take into account that your question "why does everyone say that you gain weight on birth control?" will only attract the majority of woman who experience that problem. Not everyone gains weight while on the BC pill. I didn’t, my mother who was on it didn’t, my friend didn’t. You just have to know how to find the right one. If you give a couple days I will email you a list of BC pills that make you gain weight and that make you lose weight. I will also email you some foods and spices that will help speed up metabolism. Just give me about 2-3 days.

How likely is it to gain weight on birth control?

Gary Frazier — Mon, 26 Apr 2010 22:36:37 +0000

I’m 15 going on the birth control pill. My mom and doctor say I could possibly get a weight gain up to 15 lbs. I don’t want to gain any weight because I’m trying to lose weight. My friend is on the pill and she didn’t gain any weight. So how likely is it… because i have to go on it Sunday, and i hope i don’t get a weight gain.
its the pill, its not a shot, or anything you put in the vagina… so on the pills that come in the round container can I?

If you eat properly and excersise regularly you shouldnt gain weight, but some birth controls, like Depo provera are very bad and will cause you to gain weight. I gained 60 pounds on depo.
