Tymlos causing belly fat?

I’ve been on Tymlos about 4 months. I have visibly gained abdominal fat but only 3 pounds. I’m begging to look like a barrel! I’m 5’7, 143 pounds.

I also have GERD and hiatal hernia so it is important not to have this excess fat around my waist putting pressure on my stomach.

How do we prevent this weight gain?

@sharonmitch, I have the same problem only with more added weight. I've gained 15 pounds and have a fat roll since being on Tymlos and Forteo for a year and a half. I think trying to get my calcium from food has also added to the weight. When I sit with my legs up, it pushes on my abdomen making my bile reflux and GERD worse. I used to be underweight and never had to worry about weight before. None of my clothes fit around the waist. I might try giving myself my shot in my thigh.
