I just started taking birth control pills today, and am worried about the sugar pills. Are they really made of sugar? Will this screw up my way of eating every month? Will I get cravings from them? I feel like an idiot, lol, for asking these questions.

Re: Birth Control Pills
If you can remember when to start your new pack of pills after the last active pill, just go a week without it. Since they are just a placebo, you don't have to take them.

That's a good idea. The sugar ones are just to keep you in the habit - you don't have to actually swallow them.27 F 5' 7"

Re: Birth Control Pills
I've always just skipped them. Seemed silly to take something that wasn't doing anything - even before Atkins.We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit. - Aristotle

Re: Birth Control Pills
Well, yesterday was day 3 of taking the pills and I'm doing great so far! I have my cell phone alarm set for 6:55pm every day so it goes off and reminds me to take the pill. I think I'll just throw them away each day so I can stay on a routine. Thanks for the advice everyone!
