Hello Guys we'll I'm new to this world and got sleeved on Nov 7th 2016. I'm 42 y/o male who was at 321 prior to surgery and 6 days out I've lost 21 pounds.So far so good but I'm wondering if anybody is experiencing insominia and not to mention the mood swings. Is all this expected and when will I sleep!!! I sleep 2-3 hrs straight and then it's gone. Not to mention the Mental Hunger thats been driving me nuts. Thank You in Advance for all your help.

The mental hunger is really something, I wasn't expecting that. I was sleeved on the 8th, I think I doing well, but I am very moody as well. Sitting here most of the time thinking why the f did I do this.

I think we are in the same boat dude.

I was sleeved on September 27th and had the same issues for a short while. I kept thinking something was terribly wrong and that I made a mistake. The insomnia was bad but I found that melatonin helped a bunch! I didn't have to take it very long. Once I wasn't sore anymore and was able to sleep flat, I didn't have the insomnia issue anymore. It will pass. Every new issue or struggle I go through, I think is awful but I am reassured by friends and doctors that it gets better...and you know what, It does. Just take it one thing at a time and be patient...it will pass.
