Just before xmas, and all through the house

Dec 24, 2008

the creatures are stirring, and roaming about! 

Checking the scale and clothing tags with care, hoping a smaller size soon would be there!

All fun aside, lots of things have been happening round here, oddly enough, my health is both improved and not lol.  My back/tailbone is about the same, as long as im really careful most days im ok, or only slightly in pain, if i screw up I pay for days.  I can walk miles though, and thats a major improvement!  Im calling it a Win here, though its likely I will have to change jobs or even careers.

I got the hysterectomy that i have been needing for about 15 years on dec 12, I felt better the next day, ive felt better EVERY day since then a little each day.  I feel like getting up and doing things again, and I have started losing weight again, breaking a stall that started early in september, and hopefully i will lose alot more.  Been stuck between 245-250 for 3 months, I'd pretty much given up to be honest and decided ok thats just my size.  Then late november I started to gain, and I was finally able to see my gyno in early december, and told him flat out, im gonna lose my insurance, ive been bleeding for months, im so lucky that I am not today, can we do my well woman and schedule my Hysterectomy the drugs arent working he was like ok lets do it.  So like less than a week later i was on the table and had an almost complete hysterectomy.  They left the cervix for bladder support since it tested negative for any reason it needed to come out, but basically a complete hysterectomy.  

Today I am feeling good and thinking of going back on my no carb dieting, which is totally bizarre the day before xmas I know... but I dont care, im feeling like I can move on now.

I have also started dating a man, Steve, he took me to my pre op thing with the gyno... i mean thats pretty big I think.  I love him, he loves me, were both having problems because of distance hes in Lubbock and me Houston, but were trying to get that worked out.
 
I am still recovering but im alot calmer and happier... He keeps worrying about things that upset me before surgery and im laughing and saying i dunno i dont care anymore... I do feel very changed, and for the better.
