Seeking women who started NuvaRing POST-OP

I posted this around 10am this morning, and it never appeared on the board, so I'm trying again.<br> <br> Ok - I'm grasping at straws now, trying to explain this damn two-month plateau I'm on (ok, I've lost four pounds in two months, no weight at all for two weeks, but i'm JUST shy of FIVE MONTHS post-op! That's a plateau in my book!). I want to know if anyone who <b>started</b> NuvaRing <b>post-op</b> has noticed any slow-down in their weight loss. It seems pretty coincidental that i was losing so well for the first two months post-op, then after starting NuvaRing, my weight loss slowed to a trickle. I'm working out every day (cardio, weight lifting every other day), have now increased calories to 1000-1200 per day, increased protein to >90 grams a day, drink at least 64 ozs of water, take my vitamins, calcium, and just started sublingual B12, plus my thyroid meds, and eat at least 6 mini-meals during the day. <br> <br> WHAT MORE CAN I DO? WHAT ELSE CAN IT BE? I'm getting so discouraged. <br> <br>(Calming down now) Anyhoo, please post with your post-op NuvaRing experience. Thanks in advance. (PROXIMAL Open RNY, 7/7/03, 227/170/132)
