Suggest Remedy For Weight Gain After Taking Depo Provera Shot

Thank you. I am almost 44 years old, no kids, and I have not had my period for over 7 months. I did have the depot prevera shot and it has caused me to gain weight. But I m concerned with how much weight and how quickly. I am normally a very active person, really active. And now i get really winded and short of breath.
