I feel like a MILLION bucks. Honestly, I feel like I'm healing and becoming a better person all in one swoop! I'm going to church every Sunday (when I can't go, I get SOOOO upset), spiritual advisement happens on Friday, and I go a week on and a week off between my mom and grandma's house. It works better that way.
If you don't have a strong stomach...go ahead and wait for the next update. ;)
So the results of my sigmoidoscopy (half of a colonoscopy) showed that I had 4 fissures (little tears) caused by constipation consistent with all of my medications! Instead of adding stool softeners and Miralax twice a day to the mix, I drastically changed my diet. Rather than an In-n-out cheeseburger w/ fries (both animal style) with a Coke, I am a vegetarian that doesn't drink ANYTHING except water and hold the cookies or brownies please! I didn't think that I could do no meat, no excess sugars, and no sodas....but I'm close to the three week mark (yeaaa!) and they say that it takes 21 days to form a new habit! I have lost two jean sizes! It felt so good buying a size 6 pair of shorts today!
Lastly, I've been buying LOTS of knit headbands...
That's for you, H! ;)
Peace and Love!
