Almost 4 months

I know I haven't written because I hate to, but I love to read others stories so I guess one day someone will want to read my story. Nov 1st will be 4 months for me. I was hoping to be 70 lbs by now, but I found out the other day that I have mono. Its called a "flare up," because I had it when I was in 11th grade and I guess it lays dormant in your body and maybe the surgery or the major changes in my body triggered it to flare up...I just don't know. The great thing is they did a whole bunch of blood tests to figure out why I was exhausted and in finding the mono they also found that all my levels were within range. My Dr actually stated my levels are "perfect." How wonderful because before my triglycerides were over 300 and my cholesterol was high as well. She said my vitamin levels , thyroid, everything was great. Wow after 67 lbs and 3 1/2 months my body is healing itself and I am so excited. I have had to stop exercising because of having the mono, so that I am sure, will slow things down...but that's ok...I am healthy again (well except for 100 lbs-give or take a pound). Funny even though I am 100 pounds over my goal weight my internal body looks good. That will make the next part of my journey even more special. Well here I go, I'll check back soon...
