Mood Swings!!!!

I have been having horrable mood swings. Today alone I had happy, sad, angry, screaming, and crying. Needless to say I am not feeling very human right now. Or maybe this is what human feels like?... I have lost 70 pounds since surgery on 4/21 and feel it isnt enough. How crazy does that sound. Im I insane, or is my body just still in shock? And does anyone else feel the same way?

I hope you are feeling less moody soon. I can get crabby sometimes but I wouldn't say I'm having mood swings. I think you're doing great - 70 lbs is awesome! I've lost 60 and my surgery was the day before yours. My Dr. says I'm doing well, right on track. Lizzie

70lbs?? Holy moly! That's awesome! Congratulations! Its kinda funny, how we think that 50lbs, or 60lbs, or even 70lbs isn't enough...isn't that 70lbs something like 5 or 6 lbs a week? When's the last time you can say that THAT happened? I think its awesome, and I'm very proud (and jealous!!) that you're losing so fast!! Keep up the good work!

WOW....I had mine on 4/10 and lost 65 and I am extremely happy....but yeah get those mood swings too

I am having very emotional swings, too. Songs, commercials, movies, jokes, frustration... all can bring me to tears. My observations on this phenomena for myself are 1) I don't have food to stuff my emotions and they are all bubbling to the surface and 2) I have hope in my life again that is exciting, scary and well....emotional. Congrats on your loss. I had my 12 week appointment with the surgeon today and I have lost 78 pounds. I'm finally seeing my number start with a 2 for the first time in a few years. So in a way I guess I can say that I am grateful for all this emotion. Dotsie
