Saw my doctor again today. The meds are not helping and the pain is staying longer and continuing to get worse. Therefore, I have to have a laparascopy on 12/13. If all goes well, it will be outpatient and I'll only have to miss a couple days of work. If the doc gets in there and ends up having to actually open me up to correct it, then I will have a hospital stay followed by a couple weeks off work. I'm shooting for the former, but we really have no idea until she can actually look.
I hate the idea of surgery, but at this point, I want whatever will bring me relief! I'm tired of waking up each morning and having to wonder what the day will bring--if I can make it through the day or if I'll end up in bed. The pain has totally killed my ability to exercise, not to mention my energy.
It doesn't help any that I'm totally slacking on my eating. Regular pop, candy, chips, high calorie snacks...it's terrible!! I stepped on the scales this morning, and so wish I didn't--184.6! I've gained 12lbs. since August! I have to stop this. I have to regain control. I will NOT let this weight come back! I will make a concerted effort this weekend to clean out my cabinets and buy some healthy food. Even if I can't exercise, I can eat right so that, even if I don't lose, I don't gain either! Gonna make it through this. Lost 43lbs this year, before the recent gain, and I will do just as well next year...and keep it off!!
