I was sleeved 8/27 and been having horrible mood swings ever since. So bad that my relationship with my husband is on the rocks :( anyone else went through this?

I can relate to this and yes it's put a strain on our marriage. However, he does understand, doesn't LIKE it but understands and tends to give me space when I'm about to hit a bitchfest. Or if I realise it myself, I take myself off to bed for a while and watch a film or read. It's been a few weeks now but getting less and less. I think joining the gym has helped too.

I really hope you feel better soon

I'm in the same boat. Not just mood swings but depressed. I cry a lot. I feel lonely. And I have no drive to do anything. My husband thinks no matter what I say that I'm being grumpy. So when I'm not. It causes a fight. I don't know how to get out of this hole......

yea instead of feeling good cause I'm finally losing weight. I feel ugly, lonely, grumpy, bitchy. Plus his mom had a heart attack a week ago ( she's doing good now). So it's been tough. To the point that the D word comes to mind :(

Do you exercise? I felt that way when I quit smoking, but started exercising and it was awesome. Felt so much relief from everything building up!

      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.
