I am a raging you-know-what when my blood sugar levels drop because I have not eaten. I try to control it, but it's really hard. I have such a short fuse if I don't eat. Also-if I don't get enough sleep I am really emotional. So no sleep + no eating = emotional demon woman

Same here. I'm worse if I haven't got any sleep.....it's best to clear the way!

My husband and my own mother refuse to speak with me when I'm hungry...it's that bad.

I get very irritable when I'm hungry. Always wondered why. But you are right...after eating it seems the world is okay again! Hang in there. We'll figure this out together!! Good luck.

Oh my god, my hubby and I had a huge fight Good Friday just BECAUSE of this. I literally was so ENRAGED and just unreasonable that I had to be like, "Dude... dude... I literally feel CRAZY... you gotta leave me alone b/c I really feel like I'm f'ing crazy".

All because I didn't get to eat dinner. We were supposed to go out for a Fish Fry that evening before he had to work his evening job. I KNOW how bad a fish fry was so I basically fasted all day in anticiaption of dinner.

We get to the restaurant and it's a HUGE line. And we only have 1.5 hours to be there before he has to go to work and it's gonna be at LEAST an hour wait. He couldn't reach his boss to let him know he'd be late, I'm STARVING... the place smells delicious... we're crammed in with a TON of other people waiting... and I'm just getting angrier, angrier, angrier... and I snapped.

Snapped. Literally. B/c I wanted to eat NOW DAMMIT and it wasn't gonna happen. So I walked out. He tried following me, I yelled at him, ignored his texts... literally--- totally not his fault b/c he has to WORK... but I was just totally out of control.

::sigh:: I apologized later, but I really hurt his feelings. We had been having a LOT of problems with our marriage and are living apart for the past month... so it was a dinner we had planned weeks ago... Not good, Jen. Not good at all.

(We're okay now... talked it out and apologized--- ugh)

But yeah--- angry? Irritated? Mean? Witchy? Gotcha. That's the first time its happened this time around b/c I'm not starving myself to diet this time.

But a year or so ago, the last time I was dieting and not eating enough I had just fought with my hubby and was in tears and he just couldn't take it anymore. And he was like, "Jen??? Seriously--- I would rather have you FAT and HAPPY than have you dieting and a MISERABLE b*tch!!!!!"

That hit home really hard.

Irritated??? WOW!!! That would be one of the nicer things my family says about me when I am hungry or tired. Maybe that explains me not being a morning person!!!

yes yes yes!!
