This is exactly what I am experiencing at this moment in time. I can't stand some of the people I thought I could never live without. I have ended the one relationship that was the most toxic for me and after the first day I felt like the weight of the world had been lifted off my shoulders. And i feel happy now that he is gone. This is a great thing I think. I'm standing up for myself and what I need for the first time in forever.

The other thing I wish I knew was the body image things and how quickly they would present! I am having a great time seeing the weightloss but the excess skin is hard already and I am only 16 weeks out (63 lbs down since surgery and 90 lbs if you include the presurgery loss) I am looking into counsellors now because I am struggling

The biggest thing that surprises me post surgery is my change in personality. I am more aware of how toxic some people in my life are and I am no longer tolerating or enabling their behavior. It was like a night and day switch. I don't know if it's a physical/hormonal change, or an emotional change, but right now I feel like I am fighting for me and have no patience for the poor behavior of others around me.

So in our fat is stored hormones, when we lose large amounts of weight quickly those hormones are released and cause havok. Like for me? I've been getting spotting in between my regular periods, really bad cramps and emotional swings. I have a high-school level crush on a coworker now, even though I've worked with him for years. lol! My hormones. SMH.

Calling your doc is the way to go on this one, IMO. There are some great anti-nausea pills out there.

Yesssss. I could cry reading someone else is going through this with the wacky hormones. It is horrible. It got so bad I had to get prescription meds. I pray to God once things kind of regulate it goes away. I am a month post op today. Hang in there I am with you!!

So happy for you! I know how amazing it feels to get rid of that 3 in your weight for the last time ever!

I remember that day. And now, I am on the verge of being below 200 pounds. You'll get there, too! Keep up the good work!

That's awesome!
