Weight up and down
Posted , 6 users are following.
Hi
I've been experiencing weight up then down, and I'm sure the weight loss is due to anxiety and Google didn't help that ?? And I get scared and loose my appetite.
Anyone relate?

Yes I go through this. It is due to changes in our hormones which result from anxiety and stress. When this nightmare began for me it was about two and a half years ago. I had just had my second child at age 39. Right after post partum I went straight into peri menopause. I went from 160lbs to 135lbs in about 3 months. I was sure I had some terrible disease! But I had a physical and got good reports. But then I read here on the forum that this can happen during peri. And yes there are times when I couldn't eat and sometimes still can't. At one point I dropped all the way down to 127lbs which did not look good on me at all. People that knew me were so worried and were talking about me, especially at my church. But now my weight hovers around 140ish and I'm okay with that. I would like to see more meat in some areas but I'm content for now.

I have suffered weight loss in my nine years of peri on and off.
I suffer extreme nausea at times and can't eat a thing.
So fed up with it now x

Thank you. I don't drink alcohol eat spicy foods and have two cups of tea a day. No coffee. I have gone back on the lansaprazole
But I'm sure they make the nausea worse. Are you drug free for it now. I've only had two periods the last eight months been in peri nine years. The nausea acid bouts seem to be getting longer and worse x

Yes I do but I've only lasted a couple of days on it. I don't seem to give it long enough to get passed the side effects. This nausea is awful x

Yes I am drug free now, I eat and drink pretty much normally again now, although having a small hiatas hernia I still get bouts of heartburn if I eat too much of the wrong stuff. I am in menopause now, had ovaries out last year due to family history, but I was entering menopause anyway x
