So this is my first time posting on this sub, sorry if there's anything I miss when writing this!
CW 168, SW 178, GW 140, Height 5'6"
So I have been trying to lose weight for a very long time now, I always stop the changes I make though because even after months of calorie deficit and exercise the weight seems to go down maybe a pound or two before stopping. WELL a couple months ago I accidentally forgot to order my birth control and had to wait two weeks for it to come in, I was off of the pill for about three weeks and during those three weeks the weight melted off. In January I had reached a weight of 178 which is the largest I have ever been, so Jan 7th I started a 1,300 cal a day "diet" (my TEE is 1300 so this would be healthy for me) and my weight wasn't moving much, a pound or two just like before. About two weeks later was when I forgot to order my birth control, again over that three weeks I lost around 12lbs, and as soon as I went back on it my weight loss stalled. I continued my "diet" though, I didn't change a thing at all.
I know that there will most likely be a lot of people who tell me I must have upped my calories, or wasn't exercising as hard, I'll tell you I questioned myself too, I did a ton of research about how birth control doesn't cause weight gain, and I believe it, but I did read about how some people have a harder time losing weight while on it. Starting today I am going to stop taking my birth control to see what results I get.
My question to all the ladies is whether or not anyone else has experienced this issue before. I'd appreciate any help. Thanks!
Also sorry if there are any grammatical errors in this!
