mental changes after surgery

Your feelings closely mirror the feelings that I had/have after my surgery.  The biggest one that comes to mind is is the anger issue.  I, myself, haven't seen this one as much as my wife (big surprise).  She's always on me about being "pissed off all the time" (her words), yelling at the kids, and being "distant" (her words, again).  I can see a slight change, but I think my issues are more because of stress at work-boy that's another looong story-than my WLS.  About wanting to "spread the word", there is a girl in my office who is a little bit older than me but still well within her prime.  She is probably hitting on 300lbs, has severe asthma, sleep apnea, hypertension, GERD, and some "female" obesity related issues that I'm not going to talk to her about because I've got 23 more years left on the mortgage.  LOL  She has asked me several times about WLS, my experience, any complictions (I've had none), and several other questions I can't remember. Everytime she asks me about it, the conversation always ends with: "Well, thanks.  I'm gonna try Weigh****chers ONE more time".  This girl has done weigh****chers about 6 times since she's worked with us and hasn't lost an ounce.  I just want to grab her around her neck and scream at her:  "It aint gonna work honey, here's my surgeon's card!!!!"  But, alas, I just say, "OK, well if you have any more questions, just let me know".
