Hey everyone, I'm 15, 5' 7" and I weigh 195 pounds. I started to gain weight because of the medication I am taking. Last year I was the same height or maybe an inch shorter and weighed about 140 lbs. I really wish I could get back to a weight around 150 or so. Could someone help me? I need major help! Any suggestions?

i had the same problem. i was on a medication and it made me gain a lot of weight. i got off it and i lost about 30 pounds. i would really suggest finding a substitute for the medication. also,exercise and eat right and when you're off the medicine you can still lose weight!

I'd suggest writing down what you eat everyday and keeping track of the calories and grams of fat. Also, exercise alot!! :) Drink tons of water and vegetables (Not the best thing to do, but it helps). Email me at tommygrl32@hotmail.com and we can talk about it!
