Cant Stop Crying! Help!

[mariah081803 55]

I had my vsg done exactly 1 week and 2 days ago. Up until yesterday, I had been fine. Ofcourse I went through the whole "head hunger" thing but other than that things were as expected. Yesterday I was getting ready for bed and was overcome with this need to cry. It has not gone away! I haven't stopped crying and I don't even know why! Is this normal? I have lost 13 pounds so far and am absolutely thrilled about that. Today tho, I have been in bed All day...minor pain in my left side and back and I cannot stop crying. Has this happened to anyone else? Is this part of the process?

I did the same thing and it is totally normal. I remember having a few bad days and crying so much! I think part of it is the "let down." Think about it, you have been preparing for this for MONTHS and then it is finally over. You know what I mean? Your body is going through lots of changes and things DO get better!

Me too! I think it's all the estrogen released in the fat cells. I'm worried I"m going to be a basket case for the duration!

Hey hun, it's ok. I too cried at times for what seemed for no reason. Your body and hormones have been through a lot. Things will get better. Good luck on your continued weight loss. God bless!

I have PMDD and just about every month a 7-10 days before my period I cry uncontrollably. It is hormones and it sucks. I have learned that eventually it will pass. But in the moment I feel quite crazy. Hang in there!

I did the same thing . You're going through alot mentally and physically. I hope you have a good support system and remember its ok to cry . You've gone through alot this past week it's worth crying over. Just know better and brighter days are right around the corner. Hang in there champ soon you'll be a skinny minnie and it will all be worth it!

I went through it as well! I was driving once and felt this overwhelming need to cry. I pulled over and just cried my eyes out I had little episodes here and there, but that was the major one.

I'm nine days out too, and sometimes feel like I'm going to lose it. I just screamed at my dog. I want to get out of my skin. I can't get away from me. You are not alone.

Thanks for starting this thread. I feel a lot better knowing I'm not completely nuts.
