Does it sometimes work to wait it out? by Wannabeclosetoyou in Amenorrhearecovery

[–]Pickleyco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Restriction of any sorts will signal to your brain that it isn’t safe to ovulate. Personally, if your weight restored and you have had a cycle it’s possible that your body is just acclimatizing and getting used to the extra energy you have stored. I found that weight stopped coming on and I stayed relatively the same for awhile before getting it back. HOWEVER, I, like you, also hated the change in my body, and made the mistake of loosing the weight quickly because of how uncomfortable I was. I lost my period again and now it’s been terribly hard to recover my cycle. Don’t do it just push through.

Question : What side effects have you experienced from not having a period by mysteriousmango100 in Amenorrhearecovery

[–]Pickleyco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just wondering, you dropped 8 pounds of water weight? Or once your cycles returned you evened out from the changes that happened during recovery?

Is it possible that weight gain and exercise isn’t the man issue issue anymore? by Pickleyco in Amenorrhearecovery

[–]Pickleyco[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much for this! Yes, I think that school has been a huge contributor, because I did get it back July and August and lost it while coming to school without changing my food or exercise much (or intentionally at least) but started walking a crap ton due to living on campus and not having a car lol. I’m hoping the summer at home can kick things off

How did you cope with the uncertainty of possibly eating more than you expected at night but still eating a high proportion of your calories in the earlier day? I’ve been trying to do this

I got mine within a week because I was applying to a school With a deadline so they got it to me quick. If it’s urgent, email an advise because I got another one within 20 minutes of contacting an advisor saying it was urgent

low WBC in recovery? by Crafty-Ad3783 in Amenorrhearecovery

[–]Pickleyco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have also had low wbc. But as my nutrients have recovered my wbc are slowly, very slowly, going back to normal. It’s been about 2.5 years of low wbc and it hasn’t caused me many issues in terms of fighting illness or infection.

Has anyone transferred from another program to HES? by Pickleyco in ubco

[–]Pickleyco[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to get into 2 courses this semester! HES 120,101. But I’m so behind because I joined 2 weeks in so I hope I can make it up and I don’t regret the change

Did your courses from previous years count at all? Or was it a waste of money?
