What the heck is wrong with me???

I was sitting here watching the rose parade with my son and all of the sudden i burst into tears. I keep having these ups and down emotions. I am 2 weeks 1 day post op. Is this normal? I just want to feel happy and excited like I thought I was going to feel. When will this end? Did this happen to anyone else???? I m loosing it here.....

All those hormones being released from your fat cells...get some Kleenax...you will level out in a few weeks.

It does happen. You have to remember that this is LIFE CHANGING. There are times when I break down. Not for food, or the lack of it, but the sheer emotion of what I've been through all of my life, what I went through to get this far, and seeing that things ARE going to continue changing for the better. You don't have to be happy. Sometimes it's scary, sometimes it's maddening. (Why did I have to resort to this to lose the weight? Why did I let myself get this bad off?) If you feel like it's getting out of hand, please talk to a counselor or psychiatrist. It's never a bad thing to have someone else listen in and talk to about what you're going through. :)

You are WLS normal. You will level out. Remember you are not eating your emotions any more so they need to come out.

Emotions can be really ramped up after WLS.  It gets better, but it takes a little while.  You'll be okay!

Like they said - hormones are stored in fat and as it burns they are released and we act a bit crazy.  Plus that Rose Parade is a total tear jerker!

Haha ha. That made Me laugh about the rose parade being a tear jerker. I needed that! Thanks Lucy.

No problem - we've all been there post op!  Just stay far away from the sappy movies - lifetime is off limits right now! lol!

Thank you everybody. I know I can ALWAYS count on my OH family to lift my spirits and to reassure me that I'm not loosing my mind : ) You all are awesome.
