So I am about 4 weeks out from surgery and I am a complete basket case! I cry about everything. I have heard other people talk about this... When did you feel that you "turned the corner" and felt normal again?

This is normal. It should end by 8 weeks if I remember correctly. If not you should see your Dr.

I double checked and it should end by 6-8 weeks. It is called the hibernation syndrome if you want to Google it! Good luck. I'm 7 weeks and feel soooo much better!

Lol totally normal! Not really funny but I was a mess! I remember watching chopped and i was balling because the guy got chopped for leaving out his mystery ingredient. At that very moment I realized this is not me!!!!

I cried about everything and anything. food, not being to drink Water, someone looked at me weird, a commercial, my daughter telling me no.

It lasted a while for me but when I told dr he said normal from released hormones.

Surgery date 7/25/12

It will pass it's the crazy hormones :)

Omg I googled this and this totally explained how I'm feeling right now!! The fatigue and just want to fall into the bed or couch ASAP when done with anything!! I even cried watching the bachelorette last night and that's totally not me!!! Why didn't my dr tell me about this? I've been wondering if I had lost my mind and also was stuck in a land of fatigue. Thanks..I'm so glad you shared.

I've been stressing out about this. I think this scares me more than any of the physical stuff. Any advice on ideas to cope?

      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.
