What have I done?

I had surgery Jan25 & I keep thinking to myself, "what have I done" I hurt so bad, I can only consumes liquids spoonfuls at a time, & I don't even want them. Im sick of soup and protein shakes. It takes me the entire day to finish a protein drink. I'm craving bread.. Omg bread, when will I ever eat bread again? And pasta!? ???? There are parts of my day that I feel like I screwed up, like maybe I'm just not meant to be in shape and healthy. It's like I have post-surgical depression, I'm just miserable. ????

Followed by testosterone surges that were really interesting, well scary actually. (NOTE: Ladies please, I know the danger of bringing up hormones, but please bear with me) This is a reality they don't always warn you about, mainly because we are all so different. It hit me hard, but its not the same for everyone.
