Sad

Is it normal to be cranky, snappy, meloncholy and have no filter as to what you say, around about week 6.

Please tell me, a usual upbeat happy, glass half full type of person that its normal and will end soon :blush:

  • Cranky snappy and no filter sounds perfectly normal to me, but don't much like the sound of melancholy. Maybe you are tired? Whatever it is I hope it passes soon xxx

    Big changes in life tend to cause reactions like those you mentioned. If shopping makes you happy go for it. These feelings should pass in time. Looks like you are enjoying good weight loss.

  • That was me too. I was mad at the world for no particular reason, then I'd switch to being depressed. It took a month or so for my emotions to return to normal.

Oh I'm sure you didn't. Every Dr is different. My surgeon actually hadn't told me but my endocrinologist did so I called the surgeon and asked who confirmed it but then they never told me at pre-op or hospital release so I just stuck with what they originally told me. It has something to do with potential for blood clots.

Yes I was told that too. I guess he is over cautious but then so am I :D

I just have a feeling I will be sat somewhere quite and away from my co workers for the rest of the week :P

My poor hubby though... he might be moving out before then :lol:

I was pretty snappy early on. It really only came out when I was fixing dinner for my family. Being on a liquid diet for 5 weeks made me extremely cranky while I was fixing my family a delicious meal....and myself a bowl of chicken broth. I seemed to snap out of it once I finally made it to the purée stage. I'm 4 months out now and it doesn't bother me anymore. I think I'm developing a different relationship with food. I don't really seem to care much about it.
