i hate that time of the month!!!!!!!!!

i thought after losing weight, id be better. but no. killer cramps are back the past few months. yeah my period sticks around for a shorter time now but the pains still intense. .

im thinking i have to go to my new gyno SOON, my old one in jerseys theory was wrong i guess about losing weight = better periods.

just goes to show, our weight wasnts always the root cause of things like people made it out to be..

regardless I LOVE MY RNY!

but just one more complaint- i hate craving carbs right now!! rawrrrrrr!!

hope everybody has a good sunday!

My periods didn't really get "better" after losing weight. Not at all, actually. They got more regular, for a little while, then became as abnormal as ever again. I agree with you that our weight isn't always the root cause of everything that is wrong with us. I, too, seemed to crave carbs more (and sweets, too) when I was on that time of month. Hope you find a new OB/GYN soon!

My PCP actually ended up prescribing me hydrochodone for my craps since we are very limited in the medicine that we are allowed to take post weight loss surgery. Like you, my cramps are super intense and don't last terribly long but the hydrochodone really really helps...maybe that is something you should ask your gyno about! Just a thought...
