Feeling So Defeated!

Hi Everyone,
This is the first blog I've ever been on which speaks, I think to how destitute I am. I had my gastric sleeve surgery four days ago here in the US. There were no complications that I know of and I was home the next day. I have battled weight my entire life and was drawn to the sleeve due to the numerous studies and bloggers that reflect the loss of appetite with the removal of Grehlin. Well, I AM FREAKING STARVING!!! I cannot believe I have gone through all this to be right back in the same position of every other diet that failed in my life! I am angry, sad, confused! Did my surgeon not do something right? With this starvation go away (keep in mind I'm doing exactly as I'm supposed to with protein intake and fluids)? I'm thinking this was thousands of dollars down the drain for another failing method of loosing weight.
Additionally, didn't get the memo that I would leave the hospital swollen and looking bigger than I came in with the air inflation! Also, on day four I can report I've been angry and tearful all day.
If anyone out there can speak to any of this, especially the hunger, I would be so grateful. I'm afraid I told only my husband of the surgery so I don't have much support.
Thanks in advance.
