Crying or ticked off



Recommended Posts

My emotions are all over the place. I had a hysterectomy years ago. Started hormone therapy about 3 years ago once full

Blown menopause set in. I'm taking my meds but I swear I am either crying or I could rip someone's head off. Wth??

So you don't mention where you are in the WLS journey. Pre or post surgery? Have you lost weight? I read on another thread here that hormones are stored in the excess fat of your body and as you lose weight that the hormones are released. That could explain it depending on your situation.

You're being bombarded with hormones. This too shall pass.

yeah, my surgery was sept 2. there were several days where I just sat and cried and I dont even know why. Actually I had a day like that on Monday. I was not feeling well and going through a moment of "why did I do this to myself" but those usually pass after a few hours and talking to someone

you'll be ok, this place is great for support

Me tooooo!!! I thought it was just me bc I could cry and in the next breath want to yell at someone. I had to stop taking my bc pills prior to surgery and not allowed to take them until 30 days out (I'm 3 weeks post op). But if hormones are stored on extra fat then that makes sense. Good luck to everyone around us! ????

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
