Health Update! (I've been remiss...)
I just realized I haven't posted to my LJ since OCTOBER. Yikes!
I'm still in the fandom, although life has been kicking my butt.
As you know, I had gastric bypass surgery on July 6, 2011. It took FOREVER to get better, and I didn't understand why. A colleague in another department had the same surgery as I did on the same day, and she went back to work WEEKS before I did.
Well, in the end of October -- just after my last post, in fact -- I had a massive gall bladder attack. It was awful! Less than a week later, and I was back in the hospital, having it removed. It's taken a while to recover, but I think I'm well on my way to being MUCH better.
The bad side of the whole thing is that I seem to be unable to eat untoasted bread and poultry. It's really unpleasant when I try.
However, I have lost 100 (ONE HUNDRED!!!) pounds in seven months! FTW! My health is at an all-time high, which is awesome.
