Hello everyone, I am almost three months PO and my emotions are running wild. Things that generally didnt bother me are making me wacky. I laugh and cry daily. I read somewhere that some experience emotional changes after wls, when the fatty cells excrete harmones into the blood stream.
Gosh this has been hard on me.
I'm having a tough time emotionally .
Anyone else out there in sleeve land experience this?
How are you handling / managing?
thanks, Tee

Tee sorry you are going through this. I am not sleeved yet but have read this does happen often. I would definitely reach out to your surgeon to voice this concern. GL!

Yes, this does does happen to some people.  Our hormones are stored in our fat, so as the fat melts away, more hormones than usual are released into our bodies.  The good news is that this is not going to last forever, it will usually dissipate by your sixths months, right along with the slow down in weight loss.  Hang in there, it will get easier.

It does happen, it will eventually stop. I think the rapid weight loss makes hormones a little wonky. Good luck!

Preop I thought everyone that said this was a damn liar, but for me, honestly, exercise really does smooth out the mood swings. If my workout schedule gets wonky I get moody as hell and want to eat my face off!
