WHMP: 6 August 2017
Today has been a better day, which makes me very glad and somewhat relieved to say this.
Last night was the first time in almost a fortnight that I didn’t have an episode overnight waking me up in acute pain. Throughout the duration of the day I only had 1 episode which was not as long as other nor was it crazy intense.
The constant pain is still there as the nausea and the dizzy spells and at this stage haven’t decreased in the pain and discomfort levels but I’m still taking the decrease in the acute episodes as a little win and a step in the right direction.
The introduction of the sennalax-coloxyl tablets are definitely working and hopefully working towards clearing out any backlogs that may be happening. Or as Lachlan would say “Mummy is in the toilet AGAIN”.
Percy is still only tolerate even smaller than my previous tea party portions in both food and fluids and is a bit fussy with textures with my lunch getting slightly stuck…but that passed with time.
Today on Facebook in a couple of sleeve groups I am in we did a collective tally of he amount of weight loss and for a bit of fun I did comparatives to the same weight of animals.
I have lost the equal to an average adult size emu 🤣😂😅
One of the groups is a worldwide group so it also works in pounds rather than kilograms. While it doesn’t put it into perspective as to the amount of weight I’ve lost it’s just a big number that makes me feel all warm and snuggle inside.
Today was better, I still look and feel like a completely trash bag…..just not as trashy as yesterday.
