Where did you buy them? Thats a good idea.
I bought them at the Vitamin shoppe. They are 250mg each so you have to take a total of 6 a day.

Do you think fat can penetrate skin?I think it does. But that's only my opinion.

I feel nauseous, then frothy feeling, then vomit and/or diarrhea. It's awful!

Fried chicken made me dump. Would not suggest eating it. Also, the way I made myself see it is why go through surgery if you are still going to consume that amount of fat. I tried the chicken by mistake because it was mixed with non fried chicken. Remember, surgery gives us the tool but it's our decision what we put in our mouths in order to lose weight and keep it off.

Hey Silvia' date=' I was thinking that mine had come out, but since I recently came on again, now it's back on the regular Mirena cycle. I also am not depending on it for birth control cause I have my tubes tied. My obgyn just had me get it cause my cycles were so bad. It has worked for that and I was very happy, but if it makes me gain weight then I hope it will fall out <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

I never gained any weight on the mirena so I'm happy in that sense.

I've heard this so many times! Body expelling IUD after surgery. Are you just using condoms?
Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk
I had another IUD placed and using condoms as well. Can't trust a single method now!

Here's my story in short version:
I had mirena placed 8/2010. RNY surgery 7/30/12. Strings were cut too short so I basically could never feel if I had my mirena in place or not. Never had a period until surgery day. then from there had it monthly. 9/28/12 had my physical and my doc said she could still see the strings. 10/1 I start my period and still on it til 10/31 so went to my GYN. GYN told me that my IUD was not in there anymore. I had expelled it most likely along with some major blood clots I was having. I had another IUD placed but now I don't trust it.
I was told that hormonal changes with weight loss can cause different types of issues. So, in short words, I wouldn't trust any birth control method while losing weight.

Clothes during Weight Loss
in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Posted
Goodwill. Also my doctor’s office had a clothing exchange every month at the time of our monthly support group meetings so we would all bring the clothes that no longer fit and take what does fit at the time of the meeting. Hardly bought any new items because of the rapid weight loss and you never know where you will end up in size.
