Low carb and mirena

[Maryannesingleton]

I've been doing low carb for around 10 days and have been in ketosis for at least the last 3 and I haven't lost a thing. I've done low carb successfully a number of times, so I wonder if that doesn't help. I've also had a mirena iud for about 5 months. Is anyone with a mirena struggling to lose on this woe?

I'm low carbing at the moment and am losing. I also measure myself every week and the inches are going down. However, last week I started on HRT tablets for the first time and my waist has gained 0.5 inches, but I still lost everywhere else.

Are you measuring yourself too?

It could be that the mirena is having an affect, or maybe just harder to lose with age?

I reckon you could see a sudden drop soon - good luck!

My stomach really blew up when I first had the mirena, but my spare tyre is feeling more squishy now, so waiting on that woosh :)

it takes time, nothing to do with mirena, i do both. might take a few months but then suddenly your jeans will fall off.
