Some women have an easier time controlling their weight when they're on hormonal Birth Control. To lose weight, eat regular meals, get five servings of fruits and vegetables each day, decrease your intake of simple carbohydrates without fiber, like fruit juices, sugared drinks, and soda. Increase your exercise to at least 30 minutes three days a week. See a health care provider or dietician if you're making no progress after a month.
If you gained any weight while on the pill, once you stop taking it you will most likely lose the same amount you gained, due to the hormones that are increased, when taking the pill. However, this can depend on your diet, as well as the type of birth control you are taking.
