Hi all,

I had my 6 month blood work a couple of weeks ago and my iron is way low. My doctor doesn't think this is because of wls - but that I'm having such heavy mentral cycles that it's depleting my iron. This has been going on for over a year - and yes, I do get tired a lot ... but I just thought I was getting old etc...

So I've been taking 200mgs of iron 3 times a day. Today I happened to look at my stool and it's this very dark GREEN color. It didn't even look real because there is no way that color looks normal!

I instantly thought of my iron pills - as this is the only thing new in my system.

What do you guys think?

It is definitley because of the iron pills. When I was pregnant mine became the same way.

From this perspective, everything is equally forgivable, whether it’s our laziness, self-hatred, impatience, large thighs, or tendency to overeat.
