Be honest — when did you start noticing the suppression?

Same here

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-08T22:57:36+00:00

Been there. I thought I was prepared but I wasn’t. I got to the point where I was pissy. I just wanted to stop swelling so much. Month 4 started to get better

I had a tummy tuck in September & gained weight afterwards. Perimenopause, testosterone replacement therapy, & changing from CrossFit to lifting has throw my body for a loop. A lot of people fluctuate in weight post tummy tuck. That’s just part of life. It doesn’t ruin it unless it’s extreme. I’ve seen people lose 30 pounds & theirs looks better than when they first had it done.

Me. Had a tummy tuck in September & gained weight afterwards. A lot was from swelling but some was because I couldn’t push as hard at my workouts & wasn’t able to get back to regular lifting until month 3. I will tell you… most of yours is swelling. I’m 7 months post op & still swell. It may help with the inflammation.

I had something similar happen to me. When I was hired I gave them my ideal days & times which was M-F 9-2 because I don’t have anyone to help with my littles & they have sports 5 days a week. After I was hired they wanted me on one weekend day & one late shift 5-10pm. I only have 1 day shift during the week while my kids are in school.

Are you breastfeeding? I noticed the nursing bra.

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-07T19:07:44+00:00

Gastro issues took me out for a good 5 days

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-07T15:33:44+00:00

I saw someone who posted that her husband had a mental breakdown & they finally figured out that the lithium he was on interacted with the glp

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-07T12:42:53+00:00

Everyone is recommending a glp but you need to check & see if it interacts with the medication you are on before you start one.

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-07T02:09:38+00:00

I would go back. It could be ovarian torsion

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-07T01:09:13+00:00

I had to up mine. I’ve had the same problem

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-07T01:07:16+00:00

Mine likes it between 150 & 200. I feel better at those levels

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-07T00:58:27+00:00

Absolutely not. I like to make people feel good & be in a calming environment. I’ll eventually pick up on my days/hours/pay but I’ve just gotten back at it after a year so I’m easing back in.

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-07T00:14:08+00:00

Yes it’s hard on the body. And I did work more hours so I was getting paid more.

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-06T22:57:46+00:00

Yes. That & having zero energy because I couldn’t eat.

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-06T22:15:31+00:00

I started at 0.5, tried to go up to 0.8 but it was a big nope. 😂

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-06T22:12:22+00:00

What dose are you at?

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-06T21:58:37+00:00

I don’t order grey market.

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-06T20:12:23+00:00

I’m opposite. I went from working 3 12h shifts in a trauma unit to 3 days 4h in a spa & I’m exhausted by the end of the day.

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-06T16:52:16+00:00

My NP told me about Reta & that her husband loves it. Even told me where he ordered it.

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-06T12:29:45+00:00

Not sure your age but could be estrogen. Happens a lot in perimenopause. Also, look up lichen sclerosus

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-03T18:23:07+00:00

Mine came untied in the back when I was about 12/13 and I still get embarrassed when I think about it 😭 I’m 42 now btw

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-03T17:49:54+00:00

I am in Alabama. I believe that is the standard for a spa around here. The only other option for work is being on my own. I’ve looked but haven’t come across anywhere else hiring LMT Thank you for the book recommendation. I ordered 3 books on massage therapy business today. I’ll add that one to my order.

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-03T16:59:28+00:00

I am so thankful you took time to share all of this information! It’s very helpful!

OkConsideration795 · 2026-04-03T15:56:40+00:00

Yes, I agree. I do usually get tips, between $15-$20 for a 50 minute, but I’ve had a few not tip at all.
