After all the hard work getting operation ready I’m sorry that I let things slip.
I became ill shortly afterwards and my weight plummeted again. Then, after effects of the anaesthetic meant I couldn’t go to the toilet at all...for over a week.
Then my wound reopened. Then another part reopened and got infected. Onto antibiotics and they made me sick.
So, I had to eat. Anything.
And I did. Chocolate. Chips. Biscuits. Fruit. Anything to get something inside of me. I tried very hard not too and didn’t go overboard in eating but, it was enough, you know ?.
I got myself in a very deep hole and even now 4 weeks and more post op , I feel awful, back at work, run down and struggling badly.
I’m really trying to get myself back on the straight and narrow. My fasting sugar today is 5.7 and I’m hoping to keep it that way and lower. I’m sorry that I let everyone down and I’m going to try so hard to be better at eating sensibly but life’s pretty awful right now, my dietician appointment was cancelled an hour before it was due and now put off for another month and I’m at a very low point, in pain and absolutely exhausted being back at work after a month off.
Hey, I’m only human.
Let’s hope I can turn it around.
