OT: Today I will step out of my box and . . .

I have been "edgey" lately, which has resulted in me being somewhat of a smartass to my immediate family.
Sooooooo.......
  today I will make an effort to be nice & actually mean it. I will refrain from smartass remarks.....well, at least keep them in my head. LOL

Next!

Oh, honey, your family has NO idea what's in store for it AFTER wls!!!!!  Because estrogen is stored in fat cells, as you rapidly shed the weight, you can become (more of) a raving ******!  I swear, sometimes I felt like my head was gonna spin right around!!!!!

You MIGHT want to warn them in advance!!!!  Becki's going through that right now!!!!  I called her my Hormonal Hurricane!!!!

LOL!!!

Hugs,

tia does that go for the women whom have had total hysters? if so i better warn dh

Tia....
   Well they have already dealt with hormone issues after my hysterectomy.........and trust me, we all barely lived thru it!
With having a hysterectomy and hormone imbalances already, will it be  a dramatic change with RNY? Or will I notice at all? I am not on HRT, should I start????????

I don't know, since I still have all my parts.  All I know is Linda Blair had NOTHING on me.  Check with your surgeon and your gyn, see what they suggest!!

Lisa, I can see where you are coming from. You speak so well and don't hold back. I wish I had that quality. Today I will try to realize that I am important even if my weight stands in my way...Thanks so much for the beautiful thought... I have tried to hide for years too...
