Less than a week away and I’ll be getting my much anticipated PAO, labrum repair, and femur reshaping.
If you’ve kept up with my other posts you’ll know my mind has been a giant ball of sadness and anger.
Well – it is about time I kick that mindset in the ass and get a hold of this runaway train. Choo choo mutherfucker!
Officially back in ketosis and actually feeling quite good. Have a lot more range of motion and able to get better sleep. The hip pops still feel like a swift kick in the crotch…but better than the feeling of having to poo out of your left hip constantly.
So many people see keto as a fad, and even though I enjoyed burying my sorrows in yummy pizza and Rice Krispies off and on the last 6 months, I am ecstatic to be back. The mental clarity, mood upping effects, and reduced inflammation are welcome salves to my stressed mind and body.
My husband and family continue to be the rock in which I steady myself. I know it helps nothing, but I do feel sorry for what they have to go through to take care of me. I know they’ll be stronger than me and no need to worry…but…the empath in me hates seeing other people’s pain.
Next Thursday is go-time. I’ve already started the process, deep cleaning reptile enclosures, stocking them up on food, cleaning the house…still a lot left to do. Not to mention having half of my department absent next week due to bad vacation scheduling – but that gauntlet will probably be a welcome distraction from my inner worry about the future.
I’ve been getting my book playlist together and recently started reading Can’t Hurt Me by the Navy Seal David Goggins. Great book, highly recommend. Thank you all for your support, we’ll get through this better than ever.
