I'm 7 1/2 weeks out and I have started with the hormone dumping. It started out as feeling a little PMS-like, but today I would have sworn the world is full of ******** EVERY little thing irritates me. Even my husband and kids. Ugh. I hate feeling this way and hope it doesn't last long, but more so I hope I don't bite the heads off of undeserving people. DH did something that irritated me when I was telling him about my day and, like a child, I said, "Ok never mind!" and didn't talk to him anymore. Then I started bawling! Which pissed me off even more! I cried some more and he went to bed.

I would like to hear your experiences if you don't mind, especially how long the moodiness lasted. Thanks!

For my husband 3 weeks and for me about 2. We each knew the other was young through a time that was especially trying, but I will tell you, it was AWFUL!

What is this hormone dumping??? I've been so grumpy this week (that's putting it nicely!). I got pulled over for speeding last night and was mean to the policeman who pulled me over, knowing full well he was only doing his job. Normally, I'm a very easygoing person, but WOW!

Congrats on being under 300! That is awesome...as for the feelings, I found that once I started exercising, I was not as emotional.

Ah yes. The crazy hormones. Don't worry. You are not alone.

I remember just crying for no reason and my hubby asked, what's wrong? Yeah, he shouldn't have done that cause I went ballistic.
All he could say was, just tell me what to do and I'll do it!

Thankfully it's not as bad now. It's worse in the losing stages. Your body is dumping all that estrogen from all the weight you're losing. It gets better. Hang in there.

So that is why I am screaming like a lunatic about the laundry not being put away! This totally sucks, worse than PMS!

Believe in yourself and don't ever stop dreaming!

It's a good thing my husbands deployed ! I have some major times of being irritated . yesterday a man moved my trash cans off the curb ( that were full) and up onto my lawn. Then proceeded to park in front of them ! I went out and put them in front of his car. It's trash day , I'm not going to let that idiot move my stuff ! I kep****ching out the window to see who it was but never did see. Anyways, what would have before just irritated me now really really irritates me. it's all normal. Just don't kill anyone !!!

That's funny! I always put my trash cans in the road at the curb because I am a walker and it REALLY ****** me off when people put their trash cans on the sidewalk so I have to walk in the road!!!!

At 9 years out, I have to admit it's because I'm a crotchety old ***** and nothing to do with newbie hormones
