female only Sleeve + menopause + IUD = weight loss stall?

[geelynn 72]

I had a Mirena IUD put in place in May before my August surgery. Body took about 4 months to adjust to the IUD and I had no period at all for 8 months. I lost 85 lbs, and then my weight stalled. For three months I have bounced around the same weight + or - 2 lbs. I've tried more exercise, adjusting calories, more Water, increased Protein, etc. Then, out of the blue I get a cycle. Weight still isn't budging. I have my one year anniversary coming up soon and I intend to talk to my doc, but was curious if anyone has experienced the same thing and/or has words of wisdom for me.

I'll point you in the direction of hormonal studies and weight loss and then duck out of the powder room
