I had horrible mood swings omg I though for a sec I was goin crazy! lol. I am 6 weeks out now and they kinda calmed down. I heard from numerous ppl that the the fat cells we are getting rid of hold alot of hormones so as they are released,we are like overloaded with hormones. Hope I explained that right but my point is,I think it's normal lol. Hope you feel better soon! ((HUGS))

You are definetly not alone on this one. For awhile, my friends said they didn't know if I was gonna hug them or punch them, laugh or cry. THEN, at my one month check up, a P.A. told me to stop taking my depression/anxiety medicine immediately, cold turkey. Girl, I was a mess! I finally called 2 weeks later and complained and they said I wasn't supposed to stop taking it, they made a mistake! Anyways, I am good now. I hope you are coping better with the mood swings, if not, see your Dr. Good Luck :)

I am allowed to eat pretty much anything now. I keep it lean Protein first,then veggies. It is very hard for me to get in enough food for it to have any nutritional value tho. So,I am still very dependant on the Protein shakes.

I have been so incredibly grouchy this weekend. I am afraid to be around people lest I lash out!! LOL Not only have I been grouchy, but tired. I fall asleep every time I sit down.

P.S. I might be less grouchy if I hadn't been on a stall for like 12 days! :blink:

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
