[Jencovi 261]

Awesome Jen!!! Congrats one reaching ONEderland!!!

I can't believe it. The last two weeks of weight loss was incredibly slow. After my ER visit I got lazy with both activity and Protein. But I was better this week and am feeling so much better!

[Sarahjane79 397]

That's so awesome!! Congrats girl!

That's how mine were before surgery. I was shocked when I started my period RIGHT on schedule on the 17th because it was on time and I had no crazy cramping as a warning. Good luck Hun.

Mine haven't ever been like that, but I used to get cramps as a warning it was coming too. Didn't this time. Thankfully it came when I went to go pee before bed. And pretty sure I went to bed it's over. Basically 3.5 days. I'll take it. Haha

[Jencovi 261]

Sorry I have been so MIA. I don't have as much time to be online now. I feel like I am always running around!

Me too! Well I was peeing before going out to meet a friend and I was wearing white pants and all. Had to change and grab tampons. I used to have 7-10 day long periods with a two day break in between. So when my period stopped at day 4 I wasn't surprised. But I was so surprised it didn't come back. It was amazing!

[Sarahjane79 397]

Yeah. I'll have to see if it is really gone this time. I have also had it where it stopped for a day or two, then I'd spot, nothing, spot, etc. But the period I had a few weeks prior to surgery (I had been off bc for a month) and this one were both short. And after stopping the Bc in January, my period came on like click work in Feb, and not again till now.. If going of bc will help me to be regular again, I'm not going back on it. Haha. I've had stuck won't l wonky periods the last few years, that I'm ready for regular ones. Hah.

I hate being a girl when it's shark week. Hahaha

[Jencovi 261]

I just assumed my period was more on time because of the hormone reset I have been experiencing since the sleeve. I hope when I go back on BC I will still have nice short on-time periods.

[Sarahjane79 397]

Yeah. I'm opposite. Hah. Never had "regular" periods in the pill. My favorite ones were the 55 abd 47 days periods I had, with only 30 days between them. Thankfully that was about 2 years ago. But they still weren't normal or short. Uggggg.

Omg. That's terrible. I me ER went past 3 week periods. I use the nuvaring and usually just leave it in and don't have a period. It keeps everyone much happier. I go back on BC next period. Wahoo!

Yeah. The amount of money I spent on tampons... Oh I got to a point that I would take the 3 weeks of pills as many packs as I could until my body just would finally bleed. Sometimes it'd be 3 but sometimes 4-4.5 packs. I hate periods so I'd go as long as I could. I was on depo for probably half my life too. I miss that stuff. Hahaha

That's great!!!... So isn't it time for a before and after??

[gastricsleever 259]

I feel reeeeeeally fortunate. I started my period monday before I went to bed. I think its already pretty much done. I also had almost no cramps. However, Tuesday and yesterday it was SUPER heavy flow. Like, changing tampons every 3-4 hours. Regular or super ones. Which its never like that for me. I also feel lucky that I can take the pain meds on an empty stomach with no problems. Glad it was an easy fix though!

Ugh..:I'm still waiting for mine to come! I typically get it every 35 days...it's passed that now! Wondering if the weight loss has affected it. Now I just sit and wait, terrified, wondering when it will surprise me lol

So my goal was to lose 10lbs by easter, I wanted to be 230. Originally I wanted I lose that by April 8th bc it's my 30th bday, but I've been such a SLoW loser compared to some people that it just didn't seem possible. I weighed 240 on 3/23. Had. 2 week stall, and in the 3rd week by 3/31 dropped down to 237. Typically I only weigh on Mondays so I don't get crazy. But it seemed like every day this week I lost weight! Fast forward to today- I hopped on the scale and I weighed 233! Wow!!! I just might come close to hitting 230 by Tuesday! It would make me SO happy because I have to get y drivers license picture renewed and every pound counts! Even if I don't make it to 225 til easter, I haven't weighed that since college 11 years ago! This is crazy. I stepped on the scale a few times today not because I'm obsessing but because I just couldn't believe t! Sorry for all the rambling

I feel ur pain . I'm curled up in bed with a heating pad crying over these cramps! And I can't leave the house cause I need the bathroom every few minutes. Ridiculously heavy flow today !
