Extremely good chance it's your intake manifold gaskets... Almost 100% positive replacing the gaskets will remedy this issue!

Runs lean, unmetered air entering the engine causing it to die out. definitely not a happy motor, try to get it fixed as soon as possible and for the mean time just give it a little extra gas until it's warmed up to keep it from dying out.
Gaskets are around $30 and if you can't do it yourself a shop should charge around $250-300.
Very easy to do yourself so save some cash and just read up online.
