Sorry if this is the wrong place for this thread.. I'm unsure of where to write it. 
So, basically I started SW just over a month ago. Before that I hadn't had a period since Feb.
First week I lost 9 lbs, then half way through the next week (before WI 2) I start my period. No biggie, just carry on like normal.
Here's the weird bit.. I am still on my period, have been since then. I have no idea if this is normal?
Total weight loss at the moment is 1 st 1.5 lbs. Could losing weight be causing this weird month long period? (no signs of it going, either.)
So yeah, I was wondering if this is normal or if anyone else experienced this. I'm a bit worried to be honest!
I've not gone to a doctor yet because I recently moved and I was having trouble finding a practise that would actually let me sign up. I've got one now though and have an appointment for the end of the week. (Trust the only available one to be really busy, lol!)
Otherwise there are no problems at all (apart from wanting to snack on non SW friendly foods, haha!) so I've not been too worried. I kept telling myself before "Oh it hasn't been long." "I'm sure it will end soon." etc.
Only reason the timing kicked in is because OHs parents visited the weekend before my 2nd WI and they just visited again. No idea why but that made me realise how long it has been!
So.. Normal when starting to lose weight at my weight? (start weight 25 st 12 lbs) Or should I actually be worried? :/
Thanks in advance if anyone can help.
