Hormones All Out Of Whack



Recommended Posts

For the past three days, I can barely stand to be around myself. I'm moody, short tempered, depressed, tired and just plain mad. Not sure why. I know I have alot of stress going on but dang.... I'm not on hormones and had a hysterectomy over 10 years ago. I'm down 113 lbs . Is it just my body adjusting? I DON"T want to call the dr back.. I feel like I call all the time. Anyone else going through this? I'm female , 42 years old. I don't want to be at work and don't want to be at home. Please...suggestions.

Wow!!! I have that same feeling. And I am only 38. I had the sleeve done 3 months ago and these past two weeks have been a nightmare for me. Having the same feeling y'all are having. So I am thinking we are adjusting to our major life changes. Keep your chin up and keep up the good work. I have lost 37lbs.

Thanks everyone. I've been in menopause since my hysterectomy years ago ( full hyst). Going to make an effort to either shut up and do my work if I play nice at the office. I see people dodging when I walk into the room. Either dodging or stopping talking about my mood. Hate it either way. Thats not me at all. I love my co workers and they know it. I woke up this morning throwing up stomach acid. I had acid go down the wrong pipe and got choked last night causing me running to the bathroom. Now I feel like I've swallowed gasoline. On the brighter side, its Friday and my mom and I are going on a mini mini vacation to St Louis, MO for a shopping spree tomorrow. Looking forward to it. Hope everyone has a great weekend and again thank you for always being there to listen and give some advice. :wub:

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
