Can mirena (levonorgestrel) reduce wt loss? i do 30 mi of cardio/week & p90x/insanity once/week and have a balanced diet and i cannot lose a pound!

Exercise is great: but the only way to lose weight is to reduce your calorie intake to less than you use. Add it up and I bet you are eating more than you burn even though you may be burning a lot. Remember to count those "little" snacks too.
