How to get rid of all this excess weight?

I’ve put on a fair amount of weight since starting Spiro (25mg). Has anyone had a similar experience and if so, any success stories on losing the extra pounds or has it been a challenge to do so? I’ve always been super slim with a flat tummy and now I have a big old belly, wide ass hips and none of my pants fit anymore. welp!

Low dose update

One and a half months on Spiro, 25mg. Still one or two pimples popping up here and there but otherwise my skin has cleared significantly. My period was early this month and quite painful, and have felt pretty meh for a while mood wise. Will continue to give it some more time. The tough part of acne clearing is the visible damage from picking - mostly hypopigmentation that I’m not sure how to treat. Is it ok to do peels and microneedling while on spiro?

I’ve been on spiro for about six weeks (25mg). My skin cleared quickly - in maybe the first week or two but has since broken out again (mostly on my right cheek only). anyways, the point right now is that my period is weird - its just arrived a week early alongside such sharp, deep and painful cramps that I’ve almost passed out from but without the heavy bleeding like my typical periods, especially on day 2. My periods have always been right on time and painful but not like this. Not to mention the extreme anxiety making me want to text my ex lol. What’s up with that? Will it normalise?
