Hormones, acne and weight loss

Now that I have been successfully getting my body back on the right track, I notice that my hormones are changing up again. Actually, after 6 months of Aunt-Flow no-show, she is finally here rearing her ugly head. :) Now, I am not a fan of AF. BUT, the fact that she came back is gratifying because it tells me that my body is getting back on the right track to being healthy!

Another thing that has come back is acne. I am forever trying to find the best acne treatment. My hormones are constantly up and down. So sometimes my skin is dry, sometimes it’s oily and other times I find it is oily in spots and dry in spots. I feel like I need a whole slew of products just to combat the different issues.

Has your weight loss affected your hormones or your body in other ways (aside from getting smaller)?

  • I don’t know whether to congratulate you or not! LOL!

    My hormones have been wacky ever since I gave birth to my last baby. Weird acne, etc., but that being said it seems to get better the better I eat. :)

    Believe me when I say that I have mixed feelings on whether or not to be happy about it as well! LOL :)

    What is it about the last baby that totally changes the hormonal structure of our bodies? After my third, I definitely have issues with that. And my skin has not really bounced back either! Some days I feel like a teenager!
