I havent updated my journal for a while now... last week was BAD. I stopped my BCP's as I was supposed to 1 month prior to surgery ...and right away my time of the month started... worse than ever before. I was NOT a pleasant person to be around. Fiance asked if he should check into the PMS hotel... I suggested he should. Poor guy. Needless to say I ate like a pig with a tape worm...and didnt dare try to go to the gym because the cramping was so bad...the more I'd move the worse everything got.

Friday I got a call from both my surgeons office and CHIRAS ... neither got my pulmo clearance... so I called the office.. and got "oh, well.. .your Dr wont be in until Tuesday..she'll write your clearance then"... uh.. NO. I was told that they could cancel my clearance appt (which took 6 weeks to schedule) if they did not get this... I was LIVID. They promised to call me back.. which, they didnt. Thankfully I was able to keep my clearance appt, which was this morning at 8:30... and I'm GOOD TO GO!!! AND I lost another pound.. 5 pounds total so far.. I swore I gained weight since I ate awful and didnt go to the gym in the past week. I was very excited.
