  10. the depo probably made you continue to bleed..i was on it and had my period 3 months in a row no joke WORST 3 MONTHS OF MY LIFE lol..Ive heard thaT it is normal, alot of girls on here started right after being sleeved and it either was so outta whack or lasted forever
  11. Yeah I've hear a lot of people struggle with head hunger, which I do now lol but I hope I can fight my cravings after surgery I mean it would be stupid not to! thanks for the advice
  12. UHG i did depo while losing weight 2 years ago i lost 30 lbs then it caused me to have my period and spot EVERYSINGLE DAY no joke! I gained all my weight back and then some, along with horrible headaches uhg, worst decision of my life. Im debating on trying to get off birth contro pill l after surgery or not and go "all natural" I just would hate to be off my birthcontrol a month before surgery and after ( my doctor wants me to do so) and gain weight when I get back on...I dont know if I would be better off just using condoms
  13. Im pre op and totally scared about becoming lactose intolerant, losing my hair and not being able to poop normally ( thought I would NEVER say that in my life lmao) oh...and loose skin, yuck.
  14. I havent had my sleeve yet but Ive talked to my dietitian about it and it could be from all the liquids your ingesting and no fiber, your body doesnt have anything with substance to you so basically what your taking in ) liquids) is coming out lol Then again theres other people who have the opp problem and cant use the bathroom.... I rather have the runs any day then dealing with that haha good luck hope this helped a little, it should clear itself up once you start to introduce fiber/solids into your diet

  19. @thetattooedlady Aw girl Im sure they will be fine. Just try to drink plenty of water and have a gradual weight loss not 100lbs over night! lol. I got my tats on my foot and wrist, places I knew wouldnt be effected once I lost weight and Im getting maybe a 3/4 sleeve or side piece once Im down to my goal weight because I worry about the same thing! But remember everyones bodies are different Im sure youll be fine and your beautiful tattoos will match your beautiful new smokin hot bod before ya know it
  20. @KAT... hahahahahaha thank you!!! :):) Even though im already fabulous being thick @jen Im glad your hair is growing back its my WORST FEAR on top of not being able to tolerate milk anymore ( my addiction) My hair is my identity its long and about medium thickness if i lose it I will probably shoot myself. ahh so nervous about that :-/
  21. Yeah I remember them saying to stay away from ice cream and slushies because you can eat more or it without getting full as quick so i wonder if i made my big smoothies wqith my protein in them if ill be able to get alot down still... if so that would be awesome! Hope I can so i can mix in veggies and my protein and not wanna puke for drinking more then a 1/2 cup worth at a time...guess we will see!
  22. Prayer sent you'll be fine! Congratulations girl!
