The first few weeks after my sleeve were the worst in my recent memory. The reality of the severity of the surgery combined with the consequences overwhelmed me several times. I was in a horrible funk and very depressed. The doc was not very helpful in that particular area, simple explanations about trauma and healing didn't help me much. Relief came in the way of support from my family and especially from someone who had been through what I was going through. You have to know one thing- things are going to improve dramatically very soon. Pick yourself up and move as much as you can. Talk to people often and don't be afraid to share your feelings with people you trust. The eating part will improve as you continue to learn, sometimes the hard way. This too, shall pass. Good luck and congrats. I'm about 7 weeks out and I've lost 43 lbs. Keep going. :-)
