question for girls regarding monthy cycle!

I had my open rny on 2/22/02 and have lost 115 pounds. My problem is - all my life my periods have been like clockwork - every 28-30 days, lasting 5 days. Now I am having periods almost every 3 weeks - one month will be heavy the next will be light. I have never had any problems before (have always had pretty heavy bleeding and cramps) and have never been diagnosed with any disease relating to this. Is this normal because of weight loss? I am very happy with my loss, but feel it really is on the slower side, so I don't see how it would affect my periods like this, esp. since it has been 8 months since my surgery. Any suggestions or responses will be greatly appreciated! And by the way - am very happy with my surgery - no problems, no being sick, no dumping! Very happy i chose to do this and would do it again in a heartbeat!!!! Take care and thanks!!!
