Recent picture of me from this morning while I was doing a short reel about thanking the deaf trailblazers.

Swallow test scheduled. So it's literally hospital after hospital for Monday and Tuesday.

I can't tolerate solids or liquids. Dicyclomine isn't touching the pain. I am already a size 10. My 12s is falling down. This picture is my highlight of this week.

Lost more weight.

Pain went up.

I have an endoscopy scheduled along with a swallow test.

So, I lost enough weight to have my hernias reopened and my small bowel decided to make a run for it.

Spent the weekend in the hospital, had hernia repair on Monday and my bowels put back where they are supposed to be.

I still have 50+ pounds to go. 💀 At least I'm home now.

I went to the Bluebonnet Festival in Ennis yesterday. This is my favorite photo of myself.

That's what's up. Fitting in size larges and soon to have to buy a whole new wardrobe. My new forays into bright and pastel colors instead of dark funereal colors.

I hate to say it but I love open captioned movies at the theater because of two things:

It's accessible.
The theater is usually empty.

My soul is ready for Nosferatu!

One thing that truly struck me on how dramatic my weight loss is over 5 months... Here it is.

This is my favorite photo of myself taken on the trip to visit my oldest sister. ❤️

Vampires?

We'll know of the results by next week. I'm hoping the exploratory surgery will shed a light on why I can't drink a lot nor eat a lot. I'm way behind compared to where I should be at at this time.

Here's a picture of me from last week or so. 🤟❤️ This is after moving.

My feet aren't happy but I'm feeling content. I'm not going to closing ceremonies due to my arm swelling not going down to a level that I'm comfortable with. The photo is of my hand that felt like a stress ball. So swollen that I couldn't make a fist. I'm at the hotel with meds.

Ready for today!

I'm being currently choked by my sling since my hand was swelling up so bad and turning gray.

Me smiling at camera with a black sling on my left side.

I got it! It's now my soon to be snack after rotator cuff surgery today. 🤩

I really enjoyed going out after testing negative for the fourth day in a row. It was a gorgeous day with no clouds in sight, sun shining, blue skies, and a nice breeze.

Perfect day. I hope I can do the same tomorrow.

Got my coffee! It's a FriYAY!
