This is so normal. I missed a month after surgery and then after that I had the worse period I ever had. Omg, the pain was so bad I went to the hospital because I thought something was really wrong.

Wls helps fertility and people who never could get pregnant can get pregnant much more easily. I'm seeing a fertility doctor and both he and my surgeon said the same thing. Susposed to start my period anytime so let's see what happens.

I think this is normal in weight loss. I lost over a 100 pounds about 10 years ago (and thankfully never gained it all back!) but in the first months when my weight loss was more rapid, I had some weird stuff with my period, like getting it every 2 weeks, then skipping a month, etc. Once I leveled out in loss, it was back to its regular schedule. Fat cells hold estrogen and losing weight affects hormone balance!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
