Anyone here also use horomone replacments



Recommended Posts

Hello, just trying to see if any of my fellow sleevers also use horomone replacements? If so did your weight go up and down, was it harder for you to lose and maintain your weight?

Thanks,

Me

I had to go off the HRT in preparation for the surgery, and never went back on. I am glad to be free of them, but I am almost 60 and it was time anyway. I had been on them since my hysterectomy at 42. And that is exactly when my serious weight issues began.

I had surgery Oct 8 2102. I took my shot on Oct. 23 2012. I hit a stall that I couldnt lose anything for 3 weeks. When the shot went to working out of my system I started losing again. I havent took a shot since. I feel fine without it.

I had been suffering with hot flashes and night sweats for a couple years. Confirmed menopause, thought once I lost weight it would get better but it did not. Went on HRT, Patches. Too much estrogen, GAINED 13 lbs. Went back and told doc, nope I will suffer through no more. The weight came back around my gut. I am 47, so I figure I will deal with it until I hit goal and then evaluate.

Good luck to you.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
