Have you had your hcg levels checked lately? I know after my m/c I gained some weight, but I know some was due to stress/depression. But I know it was also partly due to the hormones. If you havent had your hcg checked lately I would call your MD to let them know.

I'm sorry for your loss. I know that when I have a major stress in life I either gain a large amount of weight or lose a lot. After I lost my home to a hurricane I gained 40 lbs...but after I lost my baby I lost down to 6 lbs less than I weighed before I got pregnant. It could still be from hormones though, but if you are getting a BFN on your test then I would go to the dr. to make sure you don't have a small amount of hormones left.
