Sep. 14, 2007 at 11:44 AM just to add. I took depo for a very long time. Before having my daughter. And after having her I went to get back on it. I was told that depo has been fund to be very bad for you.  It take the calcium out of your bones.  And can cause early osteoporosis. Nice of them to find this out after I had been taking the stuff for like ten years. So know I am having to get a bone densedy test. I have heard that it can cause weight gain. It kept causing me to get cyst. So I finally just stayed off of it. So be carefull with it. I was upset I love the fact that I could get it and not worrie about it for three months. Bone now my bone are important :)

Sep. 14, 2007 at 2:53 PM Same here... I weigh more now than I did full-term with both my kids!!!  I'm 192 now... I was 140 before I had my son 12 yrs ago, I was up to 171 when I had him.  Then with my daughter 3 years ago, I was about 150 and got up to 185.   I feel ya, sister, IT SUCKS!!!   I don't know what to do, either... I've tried, but it won't go away!  Maybe ask the doctor for a weight control plan.  I think that's what I'm gonna do!!!!
