Had the meeting with the nutritionalist

and being on BC (which typically puts 10 lbs on a woman)... is part of the reason for the weight gain.

Don't put too much stock into BC making you gain weight. The hormone levels in them are so low anymore that it really shouldn't make you gain weight. So if you do gain weight after you start taking them, it is probably more of a "psychological" reaction to them than anything else.

If you're convinced it is the BC, tell you doctor. Maybe they can try a different brand that has different levels and you can compare.
