Is there anyone else who feels their surgery was unsuccess?

I posted a few months back about how I had not been happen one day since the surgery. Everyone encouraged me that the weight would start dropping. Last week I was 309 lbs, bringing my weight loss since surgery to 64 lbs in 4+ months. This week I gained 10 of those lbs back. How could I have gained ten lbs in so short a period. I am so frustrated, maybe even bordering on depression. I am tired of the struggle. I am 28, and have missed the youthful years of my life, being trapped by obesity, I have never dated, never had a social life, and I'm just tired. I'm ready to live and have a life, be a mother and a wife. I live in a large home, but I live alone. I make decent money, but I spend it alone, I love to travel, but I travel alone. I am so ready to not be defined by my weight. I thought that at almost five months out, I would'nrt feel like this, I thought I would have lost more than 56 lbs. I certainly did'nt think that I would be gaining. I do the protein, I do the water, blah, blah, blah, but on most days I do not feel like I had a surgery. Nothing has irritated my pouch, nothing has caused me to dump. I eat protein, and very little carbs. I feel like a bigger failure, than prior to the surgery when I lost 30 lbs on my own. I should have kept going on my own, because if surgery can't even help me with my obesity issues, surely I am a failure.
