Four Months Post-Op
on July 10, 2010 6:08 am
It has been awhile since I posted, but I am excited to say that I am feeling great after all my post-op sickness. It took while to recover from the gall bladder surgery, but now that I am not sore, I love working out and being active. As of right now I am down 100 pounds since this time last summer (70 since 2/25 when I had my surgery).

The only thing that seems to still be an issue is my menstrual cycle. Even though I am on the pill my cycles are crazy. I have always been really regular, but now I wil start my period in the middle of a pack (as early as day 10!). I have my annual exam with my regular PCP at the end of the month so hopefully we can get that worked out.

Another thing I find interesting is my sex drive. I am interested ALL the time. This is not particularly new, but now I have the energy to follow through more. This would be a great problem except that my husband's libido can't keep up. I think it makes him feel bad (and I'm not too happy about it either to tell the truth).

Speaking of my husband, since the surgery, I am WAY healthier than he is and I find I have little tolerance for him not taking care of himself. He is starting to have high blood pressure and I wouldn't be surprised if his cholesterol was through the roof. He loves saturated fats and unhealthy snacks and never exercises. It makes me angry sometimes that I am putting in so much effort and he is still in complete denial that he isn't 15 anymore.

So that is what is going on with me. 

Until next time.
