Posting is probably still going to be sporadic for a while, but I'm back. I'm not exactly all sunshine and kittens, but I'm not bursting into tears three times a day and avoiding pregnant women either, so it's progressing. Part of the improvement is that I finally clued into the fact that the high-dose BC pill (0vCon-50)that I was taking to stop the bleeding was making me a) bloated, b) nauseated, and c)depressed. Not only that, but it gave me a rash and didn't actually stop the bleeding...in fact, I'm pretty sure it made it worse. So, I stopped taking it a couple days ago, and have felt 100% better. I'm still bleeding, but it's getting lighter now, at least. I'm telling you--fertility issues aside, if I never have a period again, it will be too soon. Three weeks of this is about 2 1/2 weeks too many.
So anyway...on to other things. I did manage to drop a pound this week, which is encouraging. I unofficially dropped another one this morning, too. At this rate, I'll be down another 7 lbs by my next weigh-in!
Well no, I don't really think that, but it'd be a nice change. I'd really like to be able to envision a future where my waistband doesn't cut off the circulation to my feet. I mean, one which doesn't also include buying new pants.
