Aunt Flo... ? Missing period



Recommended Posts

Did anyone's period disappear after surgery/ I stopped my birth control a month prior to surgery - I had my period the day after surgery (December 7th) and haven't had one since - my period is usually like clock work every 28 days/ there is not any chance I could be pregnant my husband has been fixed for over a year and he wears condoms just incase till I resume my birth control .

Expect your cycle to be off for a while - surgery and the release of hormones trapped in fat as well lose weight will most definitely alter your cycle and seems to affect everyone a but differently so I wouldn't be worried.

Mine seem to have. For over a week I have felt bloated and for a week some minor cramping but nothing yet. I am just sitting here like hurry up already. I am hoping this is why my weight loss has also stalled as well.

      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.
