Gained back all the weight I lost last week and then some. I have not increased my food intake -- in fact, it was decreased due to a bit of fasting preceding some pre-op routine tests. I did eat some takeout food this week (a no-bun Baconator from Wendy's and a fake poke bowl without the rice from a non-Japanese restaurant), but that's about it. Oh well.
I can't believe my uterine fibroid embolization is coming up as soon as Monday! I still have my period that started almost 2 weeks ago, but it is more consistent spotting than an actual flow. It should not be a deterrent to my procedure. I have read so many stressful stories on the Facebook page about post-UFE pain, constipation pain, nausea and vomiting, intense pain that continues way past the recovery time, etc. I am a bit scared, but as long as I don't die from it, it should be fine. I will have access to a morphine pump overnight and will be released the next day.
Right now my blood pressure is fine, but as I will be stressed before the procedure it will probably be high, especially since I will have to take half of my usual medication the morning before (skip one drug and take the other one). I really hope this works and that my period will be lighter! And chances are my weight will go down next week, even if briefly.
So sunny right now, I need to go outside before thunderstorms come along (tomorrow or Monday). It is hot and humid though, but this is the first official day of summer and the longest day of the year! Enjoy the weekend everyone!
