First of all welcome new person!
Last time I checked, a lot of people I know put on weight from birth control, including Depo. What type of birth control pill were you taking? Most likely both of those contributed to some of your weight gain.
You don't want to elminate as much carbs as you can (not to 0), but you do want to keep it low and focus more on high protein. Check out the atkins diet recipes we have here, there are tons! Good luck!
