Missing in Action

Okay, so I haven’t been around.  I’ve still been reading posts, but not posting anything myself.  However… I have a good reason this time!  A few weeks ago, after days of horrendous pain and doctor visits that didn’t help, I became super jaundiced because a gallstone in my bile duct was hindering my liver function.

So, I ended up needing to get the stone removed through a horrible oral endoscopy that I was completely awake for.  Then I needed my gallbladder out.  Then I had some hemoglobin related complications. Then I finally got to go home after a week in a South Korean hospital.  It was a great hospital and the staff was awesome, however staying in a Korean hospital when you don’t speak Korean… is not rad.  Not rad at all. I guess staying in hospitals in general is not rad.

Yeah, fun stuff.

Anyway, I have been doing very well eating wise.  At first because I was afraid of food, but now it’s because I’m just on the ball.  Exercise had not been great, because I was healing.  I exercised two times this week, but then I started getting some rib pain, which is bothersome.  I will wait until it goes away to exercise again. Anyway here is my weigh-in:

Highest: 245 lb
Last Time: 208.2
Today: 196.2 lb (-12.0 lb)
Total Loss: 48.8 lb

I’m officially in onederland and this is the lowest I’ve weighed since reaching my adult height.  I’m feeling very positive about this.  Exciting. Oh, and I moved my weigh-ins to Saturday so I could have a “treat” meal after weigh-in.
