talk to your doctor that gave you the pill, he may be able to give you a different one that doesnt have the side effect of weight gain. dont go off the pill without doctors permission cause itll mess wiht your hormones and you might gain more weight. just excersice extra to keep it off.

you know that most of the weight gain when your on buirth control is from a bigger appetite. so you're still going to have to work it off but you should have more control over losing weight. i went on the depo provera shot and only gained a few pounds and lost it quiclly. it might not be the birth control- just keep trying at it...
