OK, then it's just hormonal reorganization going on, nothing serious or long-lasting. Today seems better and I did venture out to the store. Only went to 1 store, though, saving my other to-dos for tomorrow. I was fine at the store, only got slightly irritated at a couple of people on the road and the checker at the market. So if I don't get anything irritating in the mail, I'm good for today. One day at a time.:crying::angry::biggrin2::tongue2::glare::001_rolleyes::ohmy: = my many moods!

Don't forget that estrogen is stored in our fat so as we lose weight, it is released into our bloodstream. So it can be like having permanent PMS for a while there.

I tried to find some science to support this theory, but nothing came up on the Net. :001_rolleyes:

Estrogen is fat-soluable. Therefore, it has to be stored in fat. :001_rolleyes: But there isn't a lot of info about this on the web.

For some reason I can't get this article to click over to page 3 so I couldn't read the whole thing. However, there is nothing stated about what happens when you lose the fat and where the estrogen goes. I was hoping to find something on that.

Whew..am I glad I'm not the only one. I just got back from Mexico last night and the airport was INSANE. Customs took like 2 hours to get through and then another 45mins to exit LAX. Crazy!!! I was losing it, and I had just been patting myself on the back for staying so cool, calm and collected all through the surgery. God help us all :-)

How was PV? Was it nice or too hot? Glad you're back and things went well, I'll assume.

PV was terrific! We have spent time there over the years and are comfortable with the area. We have friends who own condos there and have restaurants. The Dr and Staff were so efficient and very likable. Things got done very quickly, unlike a US hospital. There wasn't so much red tape and forms, etc. I had a GREAT surgery, no complications. The Dr. even visited me at my hotel, after my 3 days (2 nites) in the hospital. Very good experience! I even went down to the pool the day after I got out, didn't swim, but layed by the waterfall under an umbrella. All in all...A++++

I found another article with that in it, but again it was buried...

When you search for "estrogen in fat" or "weight loss and estrogen" you find a TON of articles.... about stuff completely not related to what we're talking about. :thumbup: Mostly it's stuff about how estrogen can make you gain weight or lose it. Blah...

Please don't kick a puppy!

Seriously, I get a short fuse when I am late for a meal. Maybe eat some Protein right before you confront the public ...you (and they) will hopefully feel better!

I'm not sleeved yet, so am expecting I might have the same emotional roller coaster afterwards! Then you can tell me what to do!

I have reminded myself about your posts on this subject several times this week. I have been postal (terrible to be around a post menopausal woman with a letter opener when she is in a bad mood) all week with things that normally dont set me off but for some reason this week has been particularly bad. It may be partially due to the heat here but I think Mac's theory for this seems to be more accurate and makes total sense to me.

Do you think it would stand up in a court of law as a defence? I'll get me cleaver ready if so!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
