Mood swings

Is anyone else experiencing emotional mood swings? Like all of a sudden you just want to cry over something insignificant....like a commercial, movie or just in general?

I had surgery 04/09 and have lost 45 pounds and feeling great otherwise!!

hi Liz,

I have not personally... but then again my sugery was only 3 weeks ago and my body hasn't lost as much as you have... keep in mind you're going through a chemical change of balancing hormones also.... I'm sure this too will pass... good luck to you...

Thank you....it's just crazy because I can be watching a movie and it doesnt have to be drama and all of a sudden, I get so caught up in it and want to cry....a commercial about saving the whales or dogs or anything!

How are you doing so far?

I'm doing VERY well!.... no issues at all... stomach stitches/all healed... being 67 and having a non active corporate desk job... (I only get up from my desk to have a coffee break/etc....)... I'm not physically active.... at any rate... I can eat anything... although I haven't tried everything... I chew everything to become a mushie and can get the usualy 2/3 oz in at a time... so I'm sort of grazing... I believe I'm doing everything right.. enough water and close to 55-65 protein.. but I'm already I believe in a stall... (I promise I won't cry as I know some of your tears are for all the stalls!) enjoy those movies!

Yes I cry allot !!!  I am snappy with my husband also. Then I come back to earth. hang In there, as I will too. :}

I've noticed it a little bit. I don't know if I would qualify it as swings, but I sometimes get a little lower and I'm REALLY BORED all the time. 

I think it's because I'm not stuffing my face, I'm experiencing some emotions that I was stuffing before.

I had the mood swings in the beginning, but they have seemed to level out.  I heard someone on OH say once that your body fat stores hormones, so when you lose rapidly, they are released rapidly and can make you feel like you have super PMS!
