I've been gone for a while.... I got super super sick :(

I developed another lovely bout of diverticulitus... which rendered me incredibly ill for several weeks :(   I'm nearing the end of my round of antibiotic treatment and I'm starting to feel somewhat human again.   Of course, now that my intestines are getting better, I've got, what I'm convinced is the worlds worst cold LOL

I'm happy to say that 3 weeks on a no fiber diet (you have to remove all fiber to shut down the bowels when the infections happen) I've only gained 2 pounds.  So that was encouraging. 

I'm hoping to make it to the gym, maybe next week.  I want to lose the cold before I start pushing anything again.

Other than that... how have ya'll been????

Welcome back to the land of the living!  Be careful at the gym with a cold, they can be such germ factories, especially when your immune system is low. 

As for how we've been, we've had a little drama around here, but what it showed us was that we like each other A LOT.  It's practically a mutual admiration society! Ladies Night Out 

Glad to hear you made it out alive and you're on the mend,

You don't say???  First of all, hi there...long time no see, so good to have u back!

I just had a colonoscopy and the doc said I have starts of the pockets.  i never want to know what that is like to get them all infected! Sorry to hear how awful it has been for you.
