hollipop's Journal, 14 Sep 12

Decided to break from dieting and just try to maintain for a while. As long as I stay below 180, I'm happy. I've been having some medical problems and have had 2 ER visits this week because of extreme pain, swelling, nausea and dizziness.
The doctors aren't sure what's causing my pain, but they have narrowed it down to two possibilities--adhesions from cesarean scar tissue or post-cesarean endometriosis. Either way, it's very painful, and it's looking like surgery will be the way to relieve my pain. Really don't want that!! My appt. with ob/gyn is 9/28 and hopefully then we will know what to do.
I plan on getting back on the diet wagon the beginning of October, praying there will be a solution to my medical issues by then. In the meantime, I am watching what I eat to maintain, but not being all gung-ho about it, and not making an effort for a loss. I had gained three lbs over the weekend from swelling, but have then lost 4 lbs this week from lack of appetite.
Anyway, I will still be checking in occasionally and read journals when I can, but I just don't have the strength or energy to be faithful right now. Got too much to deal with and don't have the available stress!!
Hope everyone's had a successful week, I'm still rooting for all of ya'll even if I don't send ya a comment. Love you guys!! <3

I'm rooting your you too!! I hope they find a solution to your problem soon. Hopefully, if it is surgery the problem will be fixed forever. Right now you need to worry about taking care of yourself and just getting through each day the best you can to keep the pain away. We'll be here for you when you come back full force! Good luck to you!!

Very wise choice to just concentrate on maintaining - life does sometimes get in the way of losing weight and maitaining during stressful times is a huge achievement!! Sending you lots of healing vibes :)
