Surgery 3/23/17 i hope to break 300 by January. 525 lbs at start of journey 6/26/16. 450 at surgery date to 332 as of 9/5/17. 9XL to 3XL. I can walk again without pain or breaking into a drenching sweat. My sex life with my wife has vastly improved. I am off most medications. I can sit in normal chairs again. Not just fit bit be comfortable and not afraid they will break. (That last one makes me tear up cause of the struggles I had with just existing outside in public.) I cannot say how much has changed and how better my life is. Without this tool and encouragement of my family and wife I am positive I would have been dead by now. Thank you everyone that helped me.

Thank you everyone. I am focusing on my hobbies and work. Some days are easier but I am trying to just look at the next 24 hours. I do wish they had talked more about this in preparation. I will have to bring it up at my first post op appointment.

Thank you everyone for the responses. I have gotten past the major depression episode. I still have cravings but it has gotten better. I am at my first post op appointment. I will post picture and lbs lost later. Thank you again everyone. God bless

Help, please, I don't know what's wrong. I had gastric bypass surgery 10 days ago. I am depressed and feel pulled in two directions. I want to get up and do things but I also feel the want to sit and do nothing. All I want is pizza (insert any food.) And I keep thinking about foods I cannot have and miss. Sometimes I feel the surgery was a mistake and should've waited. I am following the rules. Only broke once and are 1 cracker. I feel lost. I am not in danger of hurting myself or anything like that but I am losing my will power and feeling sorry for myself. Please tell me this is normal or someone else can relate. Where do I go now.. i do have a therapist and psychiatrists and appointments are made. I just need to find direction. Help? Advice?

Totally normal. In my opinion they don't prepare patients enough for the psychiatric side of having this surgery done. While I've been lucky to have had only one day I felt regret I know for many this is not the case. Hang in there... Keep your appointments and try to remind yourself all the reasons why you got the surgery to begin with. [emoji846]
