Ever since I have lost 60 pounds in two months, my personality has totally changed. I am judgemental of people, really bad. I guess I am making up for all the years people have judged me for being super fat. I know I still have quite a ways to go. I go to the gym and there are always these two really large women there. Instead of me being happy for them, that they are exercising. I want to go all Jillian Michaels on them and tell them they are not working hard enough. BTW, I have a severe exercise transfer addiction. I'm also set off by any little thing. I just started a fight with someone on Facebook for no reason at all because she made a comment that I deemed smart ass. I have cut ties with my best friend, and my two brothers. What has happened to me? My shrink has me on several different meds that keep my bipolar under control. I just want to know where this meanness came from. My husband says I have a ton of confidence that he has never seen before.

It is scary to change meds especially if you're feeling stable on what you're on. But hey, if you're strong enough to make it through this surgery, you're strong enough to work with your doctors to adjust your meds.

Oh dear have seen this before...my mate had gastric bypass done a few years ago...all of a sudden she's all about herself...nothing is wrong with that but its the aggressive way she talks...When we go out she will sit there and be critical of what the other mates eat...or wait until she's home to ring me stating "did she really have all that food"...and took extras, or she will say things like hmmmmm is so and so still fat....i am now a size two why don't this person join the gym...i just chalked it up to she's got her confidence back!!!!...but the good thing is u see the issue and u are seeking help...good luck!!!!!..with ya skinny self....lol

Judging is a two way street. If the OP doesn't want to be judged maybe she needs to quit judging others. I'm Bipolar as well but I make an effort to be positive to others because that is what I need from others when I post here. Mental illness explains a lot of behavior for things we do and situations we put ourselves in but it's not a Free Pass to get away with hurting others and being mean and disrespectful. You don't have to agree with anyone's religious views but they should be free to post their views with out being insulted. All extremely over weight people have "issues'. That's why we are here. If you come on this forum and ask for help, don't be mean to people because you don't like their suggestions, they are only trying to help. If you already know what works, don't ask... go on to your therapist and work it out there. I love this forum and most of the people on here . I've received a lot of good advice and what wasn't so good ...well, I thanked them for it and immediately forgot what they said. We are all adults here and should be able to treat one another with respect.
