I am a little over a month out and it seems like I have a short fuse. Has anyone else gone through this?

I've had the same problem. Ill be 3 months out at the end of this month. I feel like I'm snapping at my kids and fiancé too much. I hope it passes soon!

breathe, and hit a pillow. sometimes just crying helps release frustration and anger when there is no cause of it. I get seriously wacked out PMS where I am an emotional wreck. hormones EVERYWHERE. Having a cry and a cuddle with someone helps too. Someone who knows that your growling at them because you can't help it and that you dont mean it, who will just cuddle you and say yes shhh its ok.

I have been told lots of those same things. Hormones stored in fat being released...must be why the hot flashes are coming and going again. Lol. I was also told that my protection against the world (my fat) is disappearing. Short temper is my quick fix for a defense system. Now I am learning new ways to cope since I can no longer use my old friend food!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
