The Second Week all I wanted to do was cry. I felt like I was doing it all wrong!

Absolutely! And it's partly chemical... As your body releases fat, it releases hormones and toxins stored in the fat tissue and that can make us kinda crazy for a while. Good news is, it passes. Hang in there.

I cried a LOT in those early days. First of all, it's just physically pretty miserable. Second of all, hormones are stored in fat and as that fat breaks down, they get released back into your bloodstream. So you will definitely experience mood swings and intense emotions from the hormones.

Oh girl. I was a mess. I totally regretted the surgery, craved nachos, and just had a general feeling of "what did I just do to myself?" It is normal, and it will pass! I am 2 months post op and have not felt this happy in a long time. You are in a kind of shock right now, and just flow with it and know it will pass. You will eat normal food again. You will feel good again, actually, you will feel great! You have so much more freedom in your future. Patience is key in the beginning.

Of course you're not alone--not with all of us rooting for you! I have always been an advocate of a good cry. I think it is good for body and soul. We cry at weddings, when a baby is born, when our children graduate and of course at times when we are in pain--mentally or physically.

I believe that crying cleanses the body and the spirit. My grandmother used to say that her eyes were "leaking".

Go ahead and give it all you got, girlfriend. I bet you'll feel better.

Feel better and let us know how you're doing!

I had my surgery Feb 1st too. At first I felt like I had allowed my body to be mutated, had doubts, the anesthesia messed with my thinking and my vision the first week. Luckily I had read that all that was normal and would pass( lots of YouTube videos talk about early regret). Now I feel much better. Super low energy though, and that Water intake stuff is such an effort, lol! I love my tiny tummy and feel I have been given a gift.

      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.
