I had my vsg done exactly 1 week and 2 days ago. Up until yesterday, I had been fine. Ofcourse I went through the whole "head hunger" thing but other than that things were as expected. Yesterday I was getting ready for bed and was overcome with this need to cry. It has not gone away! I haven't stopped crying and I don't even know why! Is this normal? I have lost 13 pounds so far and am absolutely thrilled about that. Today tho, I have been in bed All day...minor pain in my left side and back and I cannot stop crying. Has this happened to anyone else? Is this part of the process?

I did the same thing and it is totally normal. I remember having a few bad days and crying so much! I think part of it is the "let down." Think about it, you have been preparing for this for MONTHS and then it is finally over. You know what I mean? Your body is going through lots of changes and things DO get better!

Just about everyone alot of hormones being released. This too shall pass you are not alone

Me too! I think it's all the estrogen released in the fat cells. I'm worried I"m going to be a basket case for the duration!

Hey hun, it's ok. I too cried at times for what seemed for no reason. Your body and hormones have been through a lot. Things will get better. Good luck on your continued weight loss. God bless!

Thanks everyone.

I have PMDD and just about every month a 7-10 days before my period I cry uncontrollably. It is hormones and it sucks. I have learned that eventually it will pass. But in the moment I feel quite crazy. Hang in there!

I did the same thing . You're going through alot mentally and physically. I hope you have a good support system and remember its ok to cry . You've gone through alot this past week it's worth crying over. Just know better and brighter days are right around the corner. Hang in there champ soon you'll be a skinny minnie and it will all be worth it!

I went through it as well! I was driving once and felt this overwhelming need to cry. I pulled over and just cried my eyes out I had little episodes here and there, but that was the major one.

Hope you feel better soon!

More estrogen, hmmmm.... I don't need that!

I'm nine days out too, and sometimes feel like I'm going to lose it. I just screamed at my dog. I want to get out of my skin. I can't get away from me. You are not alone.

Thanks for starting this thread. I feel a lot better knowing I'm not completely nuts.
