Suggest Treatment For Over Weight And Mood Swings
I have been dealing with mood-related issues for months and in the past year have been dealing with significant weight around my lower belly and buttocks. I am overweight and have been for years but my actual weight has not increased.
In an effort to get fit and balance my moods, I gave up alcohol 2 months ago. But I have not lost any weight. And I haven't increased my sugar intake. I rarely eat sugars. No sodas, few to none white breads and pastas. I eat pretty well.
I notice my stomach grows larger and my mood goes along with it. While I have ongoing tummy fat, swelling seems to be in sync with hormones. We're having my hormones tested over the next 4 weeks - but in the meantime I feel like I am losing my mind.
