Lapband and that time of the month??

Hey everyone, this post is for all the ladies out there. Just wondering how you guys handle everything that comes with your time of the month, Like how do you handle cravings and the bloating, and are cramps much worse with the band? I have not had a period in over a year due to my IUD and after I lost my first 20lbs I got a period and I was shocked lol But the cramps were horrible and of course all I wanted to do was lay in bed and eat chocolate and watch lifetime haha so anyway I was just wondering how you ladies go about staying on track even when aunt flo is in town

Ok, I am sure things are ok, but just want some reassurance I guess. I had a period prior to surgery. First day of last was the 7th. Surgery was the 17th. I just started again this morning.

I have never had two in one month and have been right as rain, like a clock every 28 days my whole life. Do you think it is from the surgery that is messing with my system? Just asking

Probably so... don't worry, having an extra is better than missing one! LOL

This is true. If that were the case the hospital would have some explaining to do to my husband and why his "procedure" did not take, lol.

I would think if my LBS could restart my hot flashes, that I thought was over after 5 yrs. That the surgery could also mess with your period. IMO
