I feel like my entire world is outta control as my weight drops slowly fastly doesn't seem to matter im very anxious and fidgety hubby keeps asking me if im on drugs which is a huge laugh but that is another story i just feel so outtta control wondering if anyone knows if there is an explanation and fix for this

Thank God for this topic coming up. I am a basket case when I get home too. I can rant and rave about the counter not being wiped off. When I went to my Dr. and told her I had terrile mood swings and hot flashes. She said it was becasue my hormones are all over the place and that they will be for awhile. I also complained of back pain' date=' which she said is totally normal because alfter losing so much weight in such a short period of time that our bodies are adjusting to a new center of gravity..[/quote']

Wow that actually makes perfect sense because my back has been aching me something fierce lately. I was beginning to think that the sprain I received in a car accident last year was acting up again. But that totally makes sense

Stayed on my anti anxiety meds but off many yo

There's. doing ok?!!!

Be careful with antidepressants though bc some block fat receptors and are metabolism blockers-

Mine fortunately doesn't, I'm on Celexa.

Spot on! I struggled so badly with this first full period post-op because I couldn't turn to food. Nor can I turn to it for any other frustration, mood or celebration. So yeah, I've also been doing a lot of things that I previously wouldn't have focused on.

This is exactly the fear I have (I am pre-op)...I know that I use food to soothe my anxiety...and one of the reasons I can't stay on a diet is that if I am craving food and start feeling anxious, I go ahead and eat because my fear of having a panic attack is greater than the fear of the consequences of overeating...but I know that I have to do something to break this emotional cycle, and I am hoping that prayer will help me overcome what I believe is going to be a difficult emotional recovery, and that the result will be a healthier me--both physically and emotionally

Honestly I had my surgery oct 31st and I just started feeling sane a week or so ago. But I still have moments lol.

Prednisone and hormones....UGH now I am afraid to be sleeved.... 16 years of prednisone ...liver transplant 41yrs old...

I am still on lexapro, ativan as needed and Ambian to sleep as needed. No additional problems! Beta Blocker because my heart races.
