Beginnings
I have started this fitness journey for myself recently. Within the last couple months I started on a new hormone medication due to many, many reproductive part issues. Specifically my uterus not performing it’s duties and making me stay in pain 24/7. These medications fix that… but sadly, I experienced weight gain with this new type of medication. Over 15 pounds was gained over a span on 3 months. (Mind you I was 5’5 and 145 pounds meaning 15 pounds SHOWED badly.)
Immediately after noticing such a drastic change that my diets nor excercise helped, I ran to my doctor to try and get it fixed!
Now I am on a brand new medication that is (supposed to) not make me gain weight. At least not a difference <1lb.
So now I am on a journey to lose the 15 pounds plus and extra 5 to get down to my goal!
But all of that is to say this… you’ve got this! And I’ve got this! This is a minor set back! And I’m hoping this will allow me to come back even better and stronger!
Has anyone else experienced something like this? A medication change that put your fitness in the dumpster and lit it on fire?
