hi

i gave up smoking six months ago,
within that time i gained weight (which is a well known side effect to giving up smoking) and I got acne
which i never suffered from.
I went to the doctor about 6 weeks ago and was prescribed Tetralysal for my acne,this has cleared them up but not completely clear i also found out that the implanon that i had had expired in august,this is due to be removed in a few days and I will be going on the pill,i took a pregnancy test just incase and its negative but i have been trying to lose weight by exercising daily and cutting down on food intake but I don't seem to be losing any weight and suffer from bad bloating and don't go to the toilet as frequently as I used to when i smoked.
I just want to see if any of this factors are causing me not to be able to lose weight and the bloating as i know there are alot of factors that occur when you give up smoking but feel terrible at the moment from this and want to start getting back to the way I used to feel
