I too can DEFINITELY relate to what you are going through! This past summer I started crying very easily over issues concerning my weight and its effects on me. It forced me to seriously take a look at my life and was feeling a lot of emotions including regret, shame and hopelessness. I started seeing a therapist at the end of August and it has done me a world of good so far. I'm so thankful that my doc suggested it, and can tell it will help me immensely in my journey, both now and after the surgery.
Good luck, and know you can count on us for as much support as you need!
