@me75 . I started Tymlos in June and have gained 32#! Primarily in my belly. The sugar cravings are horrible! I don’t have any answers and am frustrated because I know about nutrition and portion sizes and protein intake but I can’t seem to follow a proper diet. Weight gain was not a side effect noted during clinical trials and so far several of my doctors have an explanation. For me it’s caused a lot of anxiety and depression as well. I know this problem has affected others as it’s been posted. If anyone who has also had a weight gain and has some explanation and solutions please share!!

If you are using the SAD diet or standard American diet, especially when post menopausal then that may be part of the issue.
I have been on Tymlos injections for 2 months and am rapidly gaining inches in belly fat despite the fact that I am careful with my diet , I walk, and have never had a weight problem.
Like you, the doctors and the pharmacist have told me "studies have not shown weight gain"
I know my body and I know this bloating/ increase in waist is from the Tymlos.
Were you able to find out any info about how /when this weight will come off?
yikes - I hope that when I stop the drug the weight (belly fat inches) can be lost!
