I find myself crying and becoming emotional over EVERYTHING !

For instance, I was at red light trying to make a right turn and I started balling right there and crying ,"there are so many cars ! Why won't they stop coming."

Another example, I went into target today and a little girl pulled on my dress and said , "when I get big and strong, I want to look just like yoooouuuuu. You are pretty" . I didn't even know her, she was like 4 and I started crying ! Like boo hooing.

I'm not depressed but I AM stressing and I really don't know why .

I am just soooooo ugh ... Wish I had a word but I don't .

I don't miss the foods I loved but I do miss the ability of having a choice of choosing them :(

Thanks for reading :)

I am almost 4 months post op and went thru spells of crying too. They passed and I have not had one in a while. I do think it is a bit of depression... food was our friend ... its like a divorce. I think its all adjustment period. Some people take longer to adjust to the new you and life style than others.

I had a little bout myself. Honestly I have been trying to help out with stuff by living. What I mean is I went out to Breakfast and had some fat free cottage cheese and a cup of Decaf tea.

I made a sugar free cheesecake for some friends and while they had some cheesecake with cherrie topping I had some of the fake cheesecake that jenneliza posted. Just remember life goes on without the food. Just remember to have your old friends around if u want! U may not eat the cheesecake u make but u can enjoy the friends and the company.

Also remember that your body is changing rapidly!!! You will be ok just try to relax and breath. :)

I'm 3 weeks out and I have meltdowns often. My friends that have had the surgery tell me it is normal and will get better. Hang in there!

I was crying all the the first month!! I felt embarrass sometimes. I was alway extremely mean sometimes from frustration. It goes away gradually.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
