Does the weight gain come from eating more or from a slower metabolism?

Thank you.

There is no good answer to this question. In some people the weight gain comes from resuming a normal or near normal diet. For others it is a slowing of one's metabolism. Different meds affect everyone in different ways. If you are concerned check with your MD about meds less likely to cause weight gain. Good luck in your search for answers.
