I never had a problem losing weight on the pill (I've been on it now for 10 years). I think it makes it easier for me to GAIN weight, but I was able to lose weight a couple of different times by eating LC while on the pill. Just give your body a little time to adjust.....

I have found that other medications (antidepressants) affect my ability to lose weight, so everyone is different! There may be other pills you can switch to if this one turns out to be a problem.
