I haven't tried that but I was on the Depo shot and gained 12 pounds. Needless to say I stopped taking it. Sent from my iPad using VST

I am not a happy camper. I was sleeved on Dec. 30th 2011 and up until a couple of months ago I had lost around 110 pounds and was still losing. I then decided to start a different type of birth control and I chose the Depo shot. I had heard that weight gain was a side effect but I thought maybe 5 pounds at the most. Well, I've now gained 12 pounds and I'm freaking out! I have decided to stop the shot but I'm sure it will take awhile to get out of my system. I'm just really bummed because I was on a losing streak and now that's all messed up. I worry that losing the weight I've gained will be harder since I'm further along on my WLS journey. Anyway, I just had to vent my disappointment. Thanks for reading.

Good luck!

Oh my gosh. I've heard about possibly 5 to 10 pounds but I never imagined more than that.

I'm on the depo shot. The one thing that sucks is that I gained weight which is a very common side effect. So I'm thinking of getting the IUD. Sent from my iPhone using VST
