    Oh, I'm a pathetic, sodden-faced, snot-filled, gastric reflux infested mess at least once a day... I feel it well up. I am ashamed to say it, but the X Factor made me cry yesterday. If you knew what I

Lately I have been an emotional wreck and I'm about 6.5 months out. I have a lot going on like trying to get a new job and just dealing with realationships, and today I concluded that my hormones are all out of whack.

Only when everyone is eating without me...

*Hugs*. Yes. It does get better.

Mine is like I'm hormonal. People just say the wrong thing I cry, someone it comes out of nowhere. I didn't even have these emotions with my hysterectomy. I just don't get it.

In my classes, they told us to that estrogen is held in fat cells and that when we lose fat, we release that estrogen. They said to expect emotional ups and downs post surgery. Hang in there!!

Totally normal to be emotional after surgery. And yes, it is hormonal. I was even crying for commercials. LOL.

I'm sorry, everything will go great. I'm sending prayers your way

This is exactly why I'm here. So glad I decided to find some online support. As you can tell, I'm totally new. First post ever. But the raw emotions have me pretty freaked out. I never realized just HOW dependent I was on food for my emotions, and BAM. Now that I'm not eating like that, I'm faced with dealing with everything with no crutch. Feel like I've given up everything I found pleasure in, my coffee, soda, food, carbonation in general (can't even have that beer). ARG.

I dream about food that's how bad I've for it. I wish they would've removed the part of my brain that craves food
