    trinjen got a reaction from FluffyChix in 4 days post op   
    ... and I’m feeling great!! Almost too great. liquid intake is good, no nausea, pain is manageable. If anything is scaring me a little it is my lower right incision that’s knotted and has a constant tugging sensation with some very mild bruising. Anyone else have a good post op experience?

    trinjen got a reaction from shiannajohnson in Anyone with an IUD have issues?   
    It’s from weight loss. Fatty cells hold onto estrogen too much estrogen = not enough progesterone & not enough progesterone = no period. With out without a hormonal birth control. So when you begin to lose weight shrinking those fatty cells you are depleting the estrogen, thus causing a balance between progesterone and estrogen resulting in a bleed.

    That is why many women who become obese and estrogen dominant, myself included, have WLS as a step to restore their fertility. Sooo, congrats!! You’re fertile again!! I can’t wait to be too [emoji322]

    I’m shocked to see people here don’t know about this... it’s kind of common sense. Take your calcium citrate, not carbonate, make sure your levels are good and see the dentist 2x a year.

    trinjen got a reaction from sasa_maria in Psych evaluation   
    Mine was 2 hours long. Hour and a half of talking and question asking, we just had casual conversation it felt like honestly. But her questions were about my child hood, my self image, how I problem solve, etc etc. then a half hour to take a questionnaire on paper that asked the same exact question in 10 different ways to make sure my answers lined up lol it was super annoying.

    That was mine. I’ve seen other people say they were in office for ten minutes, some said their psychiatrist required three base visits before determining if they pass or if they need more. It all depends so you’re not going to get a straight answer unless you find someone here who went to the same psych as you.
