If it's not one thing, it's another - weight: 139.5

Aug 12, 2010

I have been such a healthy person all my life and with 5 kids, I'm pretty much immune to just about all things...but this has got to the worst year of my life for sickness! The last thing that happened to me (trust me, it's all a long story but this one is the shortest), was being diagnosed with a communicable disease known as C Diff. No one knows how I got it. This journal is so long...I have no idea whether I have meantioned this before. But, I have, it seems, the opposite of most people that have surgery; I have trouble keeping the weight ON. If I don't snack constantly, I'll drop 2lbs in my sleep. Well, before the C. Diff started I was weighing in at a very comfortable weight of 146 or so. It was fabulous! I was a solid size 6, my face was filling out, the girls came home, I had the "booty-be-back" going on...and then BAM! I dropped to 136# in just over 2 days. Great. All that effort totally lost. I'm sure a lot of it was water, but I lost clothes sizes too. My 4's were baggy.

In just under the 3 weeks since that time, I have managed to creep back to 139.5 by eating a LOT...but the fullness is still lacking.

You guys send good thoughts my way that I'll get well and get over all this sickness already!!
