"i am very aware of how my body feels on any given day, and i was very apprehensive about starting birth control again. i remembered feeling sluggish, craving food and being moody when i was on other birth controls. last time i was on birth control i gained 10 lbs and couldn&#039;t shake it. with lo loestrin fe i had side effects during my first month. now i&#039;m in the middle of month two and i feel no side effects whatsoever. during month one i had non-stop spotting for two weeks straight (not fun for just starting a relationship). i bloated about 5 lbs during week 2, but with a little more dieting i worked it back down. i remember having one moment of extreme moodiness in week 3. but like i said, its month two and i have no side effects at all."
