I was a bad girl

Hi, my name is Sharon and I was a bad girl this weekend. (Hangs head in shame).

On Friday, my man bought a chocolate fudge cake for his wife's birthday. I took the cake home, whipped up a batch of buttercream frosting (which is to die for, I have to say), and put roses all over it. I sampled some frosting (bad bad bad).

The cake was beautiful. (good good good)

On Saturday, as I was driving 2 hours to where we were staying for the weekend, I bought a sugar-free rockstar. It's been probably three years since I had one. I had to stop drinking them because they were giving me an irregular heartbeat (I would drink two or three a day). In addition to not being able to have them because of the caffeine, they are carbonated. It was so good I moaned. Quite audibly. (bad bad bad)

I got to see a good friend that moved away about six years ago. She and her husband were back for the weekend. (good good good)

At the party Saturday night I had two forkfuls of that chocolate cake. (bad bad bad)

Also at the party Saturday night, I stripped down to a long tshirt and played paint-twister with two other girls, mostly naked, while other party-goers laughed their collective butts off. (good good good)

Sunday morning I woke up with a stiff knee from paint-twister. (bad bad bad)

Sunday morning I got some horizontal mambo from da man. (good good good)

I drove home and took a three-hour nap and now I feel icky. (bad bad bad)

Crud. That's 5 to 4 in favor of bad. I'm a badddd girl. Oh, and I drank with a straw all weekend. EEK! 6 to 4 in favor of bad.

The only thing bad about you is your penchant for exaggeration. You gave two forks of cake a rating of three bads. No way. Two bads and not a penny more. Keep it up, Chickadee, and you'll have to sit out the next three scene parties.

It was REALLY REALLY good cake!

The next scene party is a five-day camping trip, which I will miss because I will be in Florida for my birthday. That should count for three regular parties. (nods wisely)

What I always say, "sometimes it isn't what you eat, it is about what you DIDN'T eat".

Some frosting, 2 bites of cake while not "good", in the past what would you have eaten?

I ate a handful of almonds tonight but bAck in the day, it would be a bag of them and some Cookies as well.

Ehhh your man has a wife? I think that issue needs to be addressed first....

We're in a loving, poly relationship.

Here is the note she sent me after this weekend: You are amazing. Thank you for everything you did for me this weekend and everything you have brought to our lives. We are so lucky to have found such a caring, loving and gentle soul to share our lives with. I have so much love for you.

Man, if this is your version is being bad, bad, bad, then I think you're probably doing a-okay. :P

Everything else I understood.

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
