Anyone get weight gain from years of vicodin?

[scared2Bwithout_my_Vees]

Does it take alot of time for my body to start working like it use to?  I have gained weight from taking way too much vicodin for 10 years (up to 25 a day).  I tapered for 3 weeks and then stopped about 3 weeks ago but I don't think my metabolism has caught up.  I exercise 3 or 4 days a week and hardly ever eat!  I'm just not hungry at all.  When I do eat, it's healthy -like apples or fruit but I can't seem to get this weight off!  Does anyone know how long it takes???

I found it took a little while to kick start my metabolism but once it got going all of the weight came back off .I did a series of videos by a lady name jeri love she uses free weights and aerobics it kicked my butt .got me back on track now I don't have to do it and I can maintain my weight . I do think that the meds slowwwwed me down.

I guess everyone's different.  When I started taking the vicodin I actually lost weight- I think bc I was never hungry bc of them.  Then when I took SO many I think my body slowed down.  Any advice?

Some gain, some lose. Some gain after quitting. A good idea is to get a checkup. After 10 years of using, many things can be wrong, like Thyroid etc

YES  I gained weight from both vic and ultram........ 30 pds, it took me from April until oct to get the weight off .... At least it gave me something to focus on when I detoxed LOL
