I'm 3 months post op gastric sleeve and am struggling with being easily irritated by coworkers. I'm sure these coworkers annoyed me pre op but i probably used food to ease my irritation. Anyone else have the same issue?

I am sorry that this is happening. Yeah, my family members are irritating me more and I can't use the normal methods to drown out the irritation. I just sort of have to put up and shut up. Not fun nohow.

Oh yeah, I was annoyed for a long time. I was frustrated, irritated and easily aggravated. Once I started hitting the gym before work, that has changed. I get the energy out and then I just learned to ignore them. I have not desire to have many conversations anymore as I am thinking about what my next workout will be.

Yes, I am cranky at times, and a bit mouthier as my patience for bs has lessened considerably. I have had to take a walk, take a shower, take a nap, leave in the car, pet some fabric, etc and it passes. These are all physical motions - doing anything physical quiets the mind/mood.

OMG! Me! Me! Me! Me!

I wanna be called Sistah Crankypants!

My theory is that we're all internally and eternally hangry. And we are having silent blood sugar lows that make us cranks!

As you lose weight, the chemicals and hormones that were stored in your fat cells are being released into your body. These will pass through your kidneys and are expelled in your urine or through your sweat. But they can generate a flush of hormones during the weight loss phase. They should simmer down once you transition into maintenance. It is important to meet your daily fluid requirements, because it take fluids to flush these hormones from your system.

I wanna vent, too!!! My SIL, who I truly love, came and spent LAST weekend with us and she's coming again THIS weekend (and bringing a friend!). And my brother had a procedure that required anesthesia and spent 2 days with us. I'm, like, 10 days out of surgery, and what I really want is to relax/rest/recuperate before I have to go back to work. What are they thinking?? Neither one did an damn thing to help out. Ahem. Vent is over. Cough. Must calm down...LOL

@Apple203 These next several months to are a year are all about you and they should be!

@Mattymatt I would heart you but I can't

@Apple203 There is something wrong with my account. The system admins have no idea. I suppose I could create a new one but I'd lose all the work I put into this one.
