Nexplanon: This will depend on dose of adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine). Doubt u will lose or gain more weight. Most likely your weight will stay steady as your appetite drops some.

Diet, exercise: Time will tell if you'll gain or lose weight. It sounds like you're most concerned about weight gain. I hate to sound old-fashioned, but good nutrition [fruits/vegetables] and exercise are the two most important things for maintaining a healthy weight. Consultation with a nutritionist can be helpful. Hope this answer helps.
