Hi!
So, my weight fluctuates from 174-180 throughout the month, but it seems that I look down and my tummy is protruding more than usual. It's possible I'm just now noticing how overweight I actually am (as I do now notice exactly how SKINNY other girls are), but it feels odd to me. A few of my skirts are a little tighter than before also. On top of that, my boobs are a little bigger too, but again, I'm not gaining any weight outside of that range. (I'm 177 now, which is about my average.) I don't understand how my waist, tummy, and boobs are bigger, but I'm not heavier.
So...why would I look bigger but not gain weight?
Thank you very much for your time!

Ahh, right! I forgot!
October 19, 2011 - 4:20pmI'm between 5'8" and 5'9"...so I know my weight is definitely over the maximum for my height by about 25 pounds. I've always been overweight, unfortunately. Though I was also thinking, I've struggled with low self-esteem and depression untreated for years as well, so maybe it's just a psychological observation that I'm fatter than usual when I'm really not. But I'm really not too sure.
Diet and exercise would definitely help me though! :D

Hi,
October 18, 2011 - 4:36pmThank you for your question and providing information. But one bit of information that is missing is how tall are you? Do you exercise regularly?
Side effects of birth control include nausea, weight gain, sore or swollen breasts, spotting between periods, lighter periods and mood swings. I can only suggest that you make an appointment for a complete physical examination. Your doctor may find the cause of your symptoms and advise you on healthy lifestyle of diet and regular exercise.
