Good morning ladies, I read this message and it caught my attention. I
got put on Lupron 6 years ago and I went through 9 months of it and I
did gain a good bit of weight, for someone who was always little, this
really bothered me. Once I got off the shot and got into working out, I
dropped all the weight so there is hope!! I know that it is very
depressing to everyone, but just keep working out, it will come!
