I have been told that taking pain pills make you gain weight, in particular, belly fat. Has anyone else heard this? My question is, how has quitting affected everyone's weight? BTW, I am now 5 days clean!!!
Taking pain pills slows down your digestive system. I always get constipated and bloated when abusing them. When I come off them, I lose weight because of the runs and not being able to keep food in me for a few days. It goes straight through me. Not sure if weight loss comes back after being off them for a while. I'm not there yet.
