Regain After Taking Hormone Medication

I am 2 1/2 years post op. I lost 100lbs total and I was very happy about it. At about the 2 year mark, my OB Doctor started me on a hormone medication in an attempt to achieve pregnancy. This was unsuccessful, and caused me to gain about 25lbs in a two week period while taking it. The OB said it can be normal to gain weight while taking this, and some of it should go away once I stop. I haven't been taking it for about 3 months now and I have not lost a pound yet. My eating and exercise habits haven't changed at all. I am incredibly frustrated and depressed. I feel like a fool for "messing up" my weight loss journey in an attempt to have a baby that failed anyways. Has anyone had any similar issues that they may have any suggestions for me? I also have PCOS.

Yes, I was put on hormones and gain some weight back. I

am now trying hard to change that. I have a primary doctor who is working with me as of 7/15/16. I will be 2 years sleeved on 08/1. I lost some weight 9 pounds over the last 3 months. It is hard as heck. I will not give up and neither should you. Start over and move forward. My OB Doctor told me this could happen but offered no help.

Google the 5:2 plan. I've tried it for a week, and I've lost 2 of the 5 I've regained that was partially due to my hormones being out of whack (along with other things). Oh, I'll be 2 years out in August.
