the first several pics are from me at my heaviest(255), last july and this july, at my brother in laws wedding in march of this year...the picture where I was in the flowerdy shirt and black skirt was taken in May before my surgery (which was June 30th) and the last 2 pics were me in my wedding dress that I wore in 2008 I apparently am smaller now than I was when I got married :) and the last pic was taken this last sunday...I still have 38 lbs to lose but I am very pleased with my progress thus far....

I had terrible insomnia after surgery as well. I had gastric bypass...from what I've read it's normal due to all the changes going on in your body...my doctor/surgeon reccomended Melatonin(fast dissolve) I was skeptical at first but I tried it and now I take it every night...I sleep for a good 8 hours...I understand what you are going through...give the melatonin a try...let me know how it works for you.. good luck! ???????????? -

My doctor suggested melatonin...it works!!! It's like 7 dollars and some change at walmart..you should try it!! ???????????? -
It is very rare to get pregnant on Depo unless they did not get it at the right intervals (or got pregnant before it would be effective). I don't know about impacting weight loss (I don't think it will have a big impact) but have you considered an IUD instead? The thing about Depo is - it's in your system for 90 days whether you have issues or not (you can't stop it or remove it like other forms of bc).My obgyn didn't recommend the IUD because so many women that come see her have had issues...constant spotting, cramping...just something I wouldn't wanna deal with. ????????????
