Losing_for_health

Can I vent for a second, besties? I know there are a million ways someone has it worse, but I’m exhausted in every way imaginable. I’ve been in excruciating pain daily since September 3rd, and now I’m just finding out on October 12th that it will possibly be another month or two more until I get the surgery I need.

If you’re new or missed it: I had diverticulitis that perforated my colon and formed a fistula between my sigmoid colon and fallopian tube that leaked causing a mass that is growing in my fallopian tube (pyosalpinx). They need to remove at least my fallopian tube, but a colorectal surgeon also needs to be involved because it is connected to my sigmoid colon and that may need repair once they remove the connection (fistula).

PSA: I’m not looking for advice, just a safe space to vent and positive thoughts and prayers please. 🙏🏻

It seems impossible…until it isn’t. Keep going. 💖 I’m over 100lbs down on my perfectly imperfect weight loss journey, and I’m not done! 🙏🏻

If you’re on a weight loss journey too, welcome to the side of the internet where we love ourselves into the women we deserve to be! 🤗👏🏻👯‍♀️

Can’t wait to be feeling better to try this again!! 🤸🏼‍♀️ I love a good challenge. 🤗

If your first thought is negative, you might want to ask yourself why… Why does seeing a confident woman doing something fun grind your gears? 🤔

💯People say I should be ashamed of myself for gaining weight from my smallest, but if they only knew…I celebrate every chapter of my life I get to write, because I know where I started and I’m in a hell of a lot better place now than I was in 2017, both physically (down over 100lbs) and mentally!

And while I do want to lose some weight again, that doesn’t mean that I have to hate myself or my current body to do so. Unconditional self-love is the best gift I ever gave myself, and it’s here to stay. 🥹🥰

💖If you’re on your own imperfect weight loss journey, hit that follow button and let’s do this together! 👯‍♀️ And as always…don’t believe me, just watch! 😘

CONTEXT: I was hospitalized on September 5th with a severe pelvic infection caused by diverticulitis perforating my sigmoid colon and traveling into my fallopian tube through a fistula that formed connecting the two.
