Yeah, I've been on a few and they never caused weight gain before... but its still my biggest worries each time I try a new one (for various reasons) or am given a new one. I've heard so many horror stories about girls gaining 20, 30, or more pounds... *shudder* Ugh. Just don't wanna go there.
And yeah.... the Trinessa (Ortho Tricyclen) I was on lately and some other one like two years ago REALLY gave me bad depression which IS NOT a good thing, because I already deal with it naturally and am a reformed cutter that doesn't feel like getting back into that.... which is one of the reasons why I just went and switched AGAIN.
I'm keepin my fingers crossed. But it could just be a plateau... I really DO need to start working out more regularly. I've lost 60lbs just eating better and not really working out much, so I guess I can't complain too much...
