Moody!

Wow! Watch out world because I am miss moody! I can't seem to help being irritated with everyone or everything. I was sleeved June 6.

Anybody else going through something similar? I feel like it's affecting my relationships, and I would like to get it under control.

Thanks!

Yes ma'am I know what you're going through moods change like the hands on a clock. I'm going to see a counselor becuase if it continues I may not have a job or a family. Btw I was sleeved on August 14th

were you gals moody before surgery? because i am... and if it's that bad, i'm scared.. lol no joke!

Im pre-surgery and very moody. Im not sure if its the lack of food, not enough vitamins, anxiety about the surgery or what but whoahh Im a cranky biartch!

My NUT told me is due to not getting enough carbs. And honestly I was one of the most easy going mild mannered people prior to surgery. She (NUT) says it temporary and my GP put me on a anti- depressant to try to stabilize my moods. I have since decided to see a counselor becuase I want to be both physically and mentally healthy !

I was excessively moody for about a month post surgery. I feel like all has stabilized now. Actually lately I have been feeling really happy. It's hard to be in a bad mood when you are getting thinner! I hope it settles for you all soon too!

I guess it doesn't help that I am having issues with my marriage, plus I'm trying to start my own business, plus I have 3 kids under 6! Perhaps the reduced calories plus too much on my plate makes for a volatile situation.

I am currently seeing a counselor and I do eat a few carbs (1/2 c of Total for breakfast). I want to try and exercise more - but I'm not sure what I can do beyond that. :)

I find it helps when I vent on my blog about how I feel, even if no one reads it, it feels great to just get it out. Or when I'm feeling cranky if I take a walk and get those endorphins going it makes a big difference. I added just one minute of jogging to my walk today because I wanted to see how it felt/if I felt like in a few weeks I'd be ok to start couch to 5k, and it took me from feeling kinda low to feeling really good - and completely pumped up. I wanted to do more! I still am not cleared for exercise though, so I am just gonna put that on the top of my list of things to do in 2 weeks =)

I thought it was just me. I am moody all of the time. I was sleeved 01/30/2012 and so far I've lost 68 pounds. I was anxious before surgery, but now it's different. It's like PMS but all the time. I snap at everyone, I don't smile like I used to, and no one can do right by me. I wonder how much of this is weight loss, how much is me going through lady problems, and how much of this is my husband not understanding what I am going through. I take anti-anxiety meds and I found they are effective with anxiety, but not this sadness. I tried other meds, but they didn't work. I think my next step is counseling and joining a gym. I know from the past I feel better after exercising and sitting in the sauna.

exercise does help.. it releases endorphins that make you feel happy. :)
