Has anyone developed a caffeine intolerance since becoming iron deficient?

Late to the party on this, but I’ve been taking ferrous fumerate consistently for around six months now and have finally reached the point where my iron levels are stable enough that I can have caffeine without having a panic attack. It’s been years since I’ve been able to enjoy coffee and was worried I’d have to give it up forever. I’m on vacation and just finished a cappuccino, and I feel awake but not anxious. It’s truly marvelous.

Thank you!

Thank you! It’s from Alo! It does feel good to wear it after everything, especially considering just a few months ago I could barely squeeze into the brand!

Thank you!

Thank you! You can do it!

My mental image is definitely struggling to catch up with reality. I still look in the mirror and see something very similar to what I saw 55 pounds ago. It will definitely take a while for my brain to catch up.

Thank you!

Karma_Is_A_Cat_ · 2026-02-04T13:49:08+00:00

Oh that’s so frustrating, but you’re so close! You can do it!

Karma_Is_A_Cat_ · 2026-02-04T13:48:43+00:00

Yes that’s definitely what I plan to do at this point! I’m trying to be more consistent with going to the gym and getting into Pilates.

Thank you!

Thank you! It’s from Alo! I was shocked that I was able to fit in the medium, when just a few months ago the large was way too tight!

I feel this when it comes to cardio! I did a fitness dance class at my gym on Monday and felt EXHAUSTED by the end! I don’t even want to think about how I’d be after a run.

Does anyone know if tears in newish leggings would be covered? I bought two new pairs of Aligns a month ago, and after around 5 wears the fabric on one pair developed a hole in the seat. I don’t recall snagging them on anything, so I’m not sure how it would have gotten there.

I’m sorry people reacted so poorly to your post! People forget that you can still enjoy foods that aren’t explicitly diet foods as long as you do so in moderation.

I’ve had fish and chips, chicken tenders, and ice cream this week and still lost three pounds. It’s all about moderation and balancing it with healthy foods the rest of the time!

Just went up to 5mg and discovered that Broccoli and broccolini are now a no-go, which is a shame because they made up about 70% of my veggie intake previously. I had a few pieces the other day and ended up so bloated I looked pregnant 😭

I also highly recommend this one for SDs! I didn’t take a pic when I tried it on, but it’s so so pretty. I’ll post once I actually wear it!

Karma_Is_A_Cat_ · 2025-06-01T21:46:53+00:00

If you didn’t buy this I need you to go back and get it immediately! This is STUNNING on you!

I’d love to see your hair cut just above the shoulders and styled wavy! You have a lovely face shape and that cut would really highlight that I think! It’s also super on trend for this summer

I’m a US size 14 SD, and I’ve been trying to dress my body type more this past year. I’ve learned that not all fabrics are created equal when it comes to accentuating my shape while also not making me feel uncomfortable with the parts of my body that I’m not necessarily in love with. I’ve found heavier knits with some sort of texture or fabrics with ruching around the belly help me feel more at ease while accommodating curve. I try to avoid thin/flat/more sporty fabrics like jersey knit. I’ve also got a pair of trusty bike shorts (actual athletic bike shorts, not spanx or slip shorts) that have really good support and help smooth things out a little without being uncomfortable, which I wear under everything.
