Well my beta blocker I'm on made me gain like 60 lbs a while back, but I noticed it was because I was snacking late at night. But if you workout and watch what you eat you'll either lose or maintain.

I don't really snack tbh I use to have one or two meals a day but small meals I eat two meals now but a lot more then before and I have started to eat healthy I do yoga n walk any where I need to go I cut all my sweet stuff out a long time ago if I'm honest

Okay yeah I think if you increase the exercising and have healthy meals along with lots of water. You'll lose everything you gained. I lost 30 lbs recently. Didn't think it was possible, but it was.
