Anyone having them? I had a hell of one today. Went from being happy to super agitated then my skin got really flushed and hot to the touch. My pulse was fine. Then I got hit with this wave of overwhelming sadness. Like I wanted to just sob. I've calmed a bit but man it was like a 30 minute rollercoaster ride.

Bert n Ernie - Lots of hormones floating around as the weight melts away. Yuppers I've been there myself. Thankfully I have an understanding hubster who realized what caused it and reminded me about it. It does get better though :)

it does sound like some hormones went a little crazy on you. And doesn't seem to be anything you can do but wait it out. But of course if it keeps happening talk to your doc, maybe even your PCP they may need to check some hormone levels and see what is going on, Hope you feel better and have a great weekend.

I'm two weeks out and my moods have been everywhere and I take a low dose mood pill, I have been on them since I was diagnosed with PCOS. So I know they must be powerful mood swings to come through my meds :) My husband remembered hearing that it happens in my support group meetings and has been really awesome. They say it gets better.

      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.
