The Past Few Weeks

     So it has been quite sometime since I last posted anything. It has been a really tough month for me. Almost 3 weeks ago I had a hysterectomy, which is something that I was not at all planning on going through. I had been having horrible abdominal pain and after my exploratory surgery had failed in relieving my pain, I resorted to having a hysterectomy. I never really planned on having more kids. I had thought about it but it never seemed to be in the cards for me. However, now that I don't have that option anymore I feel so sad about it. I can't say if I hadn't had my hysterectomy I would have more kids but at the same time at least there was always that option. My emotions since the surgery have been the worst part. I elected to keep one of my ovaries and just adjusting to the difference in hormone levels has been hard. I am elated and happy one minute and I am crying and screaming the next. It really is a roller coaster.
     As for weight watchers I missed 2 meetings one because there was a funeral at the church it was held and the second because of my surgery. But I was happy at my first weigh in back that I had lost almost 10 pounds. I am just short of 4 pounds away from my first 20 pounds lost. My goal for the week is to loose those 4 pounds. I just have to get back on track of eating right and walking if not anything else. Wish me luck and Happy Saint Patrick's Day to everyone.
