TUESDAY'S 11 A.M. FLUID CHECK
In case you hadn't noticed, we're awfully good about dispensing hugs here!!! So come on by for one anytime!!!!
Keep in mind that you're not too far out - estrogen is stored in fat cells and when you lose weight rapidly (particularly with RNY), those hormones flood your blood stream, causing mood swings, irritability, mild to severe depression, etc. It's perfectly normal, and yes, frustrating. If it continues, (although it doesn't sound like a constant thing with you), there are things (meds, therapy) that can help!!
And.....we're women.....we're entitled to be hormonal!!!!! LOL!!!
More hugs!

Hi Charla,
I remember going through feelign the same way after surgery and it doesn't help that it is winter. I totally agree with Tia all the extra hormones that is dumping in our system from losing weight will make you moody. Please know that we are all here for you and call your doctor if you feel that you need to.
(((((((((((((((((Big hugs from me)))))))))))))))))))
