Anyone experience severe depression?

I feel left out of groups I belonged to prior to surgey, My surgery date was Nov 2007. I have lost 93.5 pounds so far. My coworkers I ate lunch with daily before surgery have shut me out. I now eat at my desk or not at all. Lunch was the time at my office to socialize, We would order food out and eat together, Now I must eat special food or bring my own selections and no on includes me anymore. I loved to go to work pre op and now I dread walking in the office. I find I am taking part of my lunch break to walk alone outside the building just to escape. Is this normal to feel like I am no longer part of the group? I feel the depression getting worse everyday. I just don't feel like my friends are supporting me since I had surgery...I can still eat just not the same foods. I try to put on a happy face but I am miserable. Anyone else going through this? I am happy with the changes in myself just not the relationships in my life...
