I'm on pills that make it so I only have one every 3 months and they are so light I just have to wear a pantie liner. I started a period about a week ago which wasn't when it was suppose to be and has been really heavy and I have really bad period cramps it sucks, I have read on here about this happening to a lot of women after surgery so I am bearing with it.

Disclaimer: period question!

So yesterday night I randomly started bleeding. My cycle is the 15th. It is very heavy and I have gone through 3 super tampons. Anyone experience this?

Surgery 9/24/12 344 9/29/12 327.8

So glad it's not just me. Came on 5 days early and this bleeding is horrible. I have to use tampons and pads. And still changing everything every 2 hours cause they r soaked. The cramps combined with this abdominal burning has me in bed all damn day. I am getting some relief with the binder but holy crap Batman. I'm miserable right now. Pretty sure the heavy bleeding has a lot to do with the blood thinning shots

Today is my first day back to work in the office. I worked from home last week. Surgery was on 9/10 and I took 2 weeks off. Plenty of time for me. On a bright note' date=' I had to do my wellness screening for work to get a discount on my insurance premiums and.....I went from a high BMI of 41 to a 35 today! Highest weight was 225 and today I'm 191 (34 pounds total, 19 since surgery). Yes, I'm counting every single pound gone since I started this journey a year ago!![/quote']

Wish I could go back to work. Surgery 9/17/12 not released to go back till 11/19/12:-( I'm about to be so freaking broke

FACEBOOK PAGE!!!!! September to Remember 2012 RNY yeah i finally did it sorry it took so long' date=' send a request as i did keep it closed for privacy reasons, you will see my husband is on there i will remove him as I had to add at least one person in order to get the group open. If for any reason anyone doesn't not want the group CLOSED i can open it. I just thought with photo stealing and unwanted advertising, plus then anyone on Facebook could post and open comments they wanted to with out joining the group.... yea.... i hope you all happy... but please dont stop coming to this forum as i still find a lot of good information. i just figured FB would be nice to get to know another and share pics and additional information in a easier format. hope you enjoy...[/quote']

Home again and I made a discovery. My pouch likes warm fluids not ice. So drinking is getting easier sipping things warm.

Since I have been home the damn diarrhea has eased up thank god.

Thanks for the idea my pouch seems to like warmer things to. What on earth am I going to do with all theses sugar free popsicles. LOL

Yeah my stomach is handling the pureed food fine. I just have a lot of pain probably from not having a BM YET. (Surgery was 9-26). I have an IUD so haven't had a period since it was put in in 2009. YAAY! But was told if it started after surgery to call Dr office...there was something they could do to stop it. I am sleeping a lot due to the pain med. I'm already tired of the pureed food. Be glad to eat solids again lol

      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.
