Quitting birth control side effects

I was on the combo pill for about a year. Had horrible side effects so I decided to give my body a little break and stopped taking them for a while.

While I was on the pill, I never had any cravings and had no real appetite, but still was gaining weight or couldn’t lose any weight.

I’ve stopped my pill for about a month and have already dropped 5lbs, but I have this strong craving for sugar everyday! I always want something sweet.

Is this normal after stopping the pill?

(No chance of pregnancy, so it’s not that!)
