I'm two months out tomorrow and today I just couldn't shake this feeling of overwhelming sadness.

I'm down 40lbs and 6 away from onederland. I am so pumped about that!! I look at my wedding dress that I'll be wearing in October and I smile.

But this feeling of sadness just won't go away. I'm on Zoloft since depression goes hand in hand with ms. I don't have any major issues in my life right now. I just don't get why I'm feeling so sad...

Had to get it out there so I'm not dwelling on it.

Large amounts of weight loss can definitely impact hormonal balance. My guess is that you're just experiencing the mood swings that can accompany the imbalance while your body adjusts. It doesn't make it any less uncomfortable, but it is sometimes a little reassuring to know what's going on.

It might be a good idea to check in with your doctor just in case, though.

Good luck!

Thank you. I am watching and if the funk gets any deeper or doesn't look like it is easing up I will be calling the doc.

What's crazy in pre op that was almost exactly what I would say to someone.

I don't get where the voice of reason drops off between pre op and post op.

oh CRAP!!! Maybe that's what's in the part of the tummy they remove!!!

My lame attempt at humor.

I was crying yesterday - off an on all day (3 months out). Ok, so maybe its hormones and such. good to know. But I realized I was grieving the loss of my dad from over a year ago. I can't emotionally eat or distract myself with food anymore so here I am, smaller, with the same issues, but now I have to deal with them. Do you have unresolved issues coming up??

That's because now you are living on the other side of the sleeve and going thru it! I really think it's normal and a lot of post op ppl experience this. I had an "off" week around 2 months out. It passed but I just felt really sad and depressed andmy weight loss and life in general were doing great! I would say that if you keep feeling this way for a period of time or it starts affecting your life to see a dr. But to have days like this is normal.

I had the Sadness emptiness feeling around 3 weeks. Also was having some back pain issues and had tears for a while over that. But I'm back to work and Exercising i feel Amazing as compared to before. i take St Johns worth Tea before I go to work. It does help me.

Thank God I'm not alone. I was feeling sad about 3 weeks after my surgery. I would start crying for no reason but it went away. Now that I had my 2 month surgiversary I started feeling sad and blue again. Since Sunday I have been sad, mad, and just generally feeling depressed. It has gotten better but I still don't feel like myself.

Well today I shifted from sad to irritable. Ah this roller is getting old. LoL!

I miss stable moods more then I miss food!!!

LoL!!!!!!
