I think that is normal, I did the 3rd day out but have managed to stay positive by reading so many posts here. If it helps.. Sending hugs your way

Thank you it's been since 12/4 but I feel lost. Happy I did this just dont seem to be adapting well. Especially with food choices. So I really needed that hug

That can happen after surgery. I think the chemicals in our brain get a little out of balance when we have surgery. Known as post-op depression. Walking sometimes helps. Boosts the happy cells in the brain. If it goes on too long talk to your doctor.

My anxiety has spiked since surgery, never felt depressed, but it's hard bc now I lost food to cope with. Sometimes I still have that emotional eater come out, but it hard to deal with. Your body has gone through sooooo many changes. Keep on keeping on girl. Positive vibes sent your way!

I'm expecting to deal with that. You'll be in mourning for the loss of food as a source of comfort.

Hang in there. I'd highly recommend asking your surgeon to refer you to a counselor specializing in bariatric patients.
