Hey VP!

Im on the depo provera shot, and since being on it(nov. of last year) I have gained around 40-50 lbs :(.
I am in the process of trying to lose weight and my boyfriend is insistent that if I get off the depo shot, I will drop it really fast.
I really REALLY like the security of the depo shot. Not ever having to remember pills, and I don't think it makes me too crazy. Is there another birth control that is similar to depo in terms of protection and longevity, but perhaps wont make me gain the weight/may help lose the weight I have already gained? If not, Im staying on the depo shot, and I will just have to work extra extra hard I guess haha.

I just got off the shot (after being on it for 7 years straight) in May of 2009. I JUST got my period back in February of 2010, and since then I've lost 30 pounds and counting. I am now smaller than I was in highschool! It's such a great feeling! In addition to that, I finally feel like a normal woman now that I'm sans depo.

I'm not using one. My partner and I use withdrawal method. I trust him enough to practice this effectively. I don't think it's for everyone, but it has been the best method for us.
