Since I had Olivia I have been telling myself "to get back on the program," well because of a few recent events I really need to do just that. One week ago was my birthday, I did not have any plans to really do a whole lot. But I guess someone else had plans for me. Around 5AM I woke up feeling really blah, thought maybe I had heartburn or stomach pains, but it just keep getting worse, it almost started feeling like chest pains. It was a whole lot of NOT fun. To make my story a lot shorter than it could be, both my mom and Richard agreed that I should go in to the ER, four hours in the ER and one shot of drugs that knocked me out hardcore....they couldn't definitively say what was the matter. My brother knew though, he had gone through this same thing 7 times before...gallbladder attacks. Great.
After I left the hospital I felt groggy but fine. Thinking well, now what. I knew what I needed to do, change my diet. But it just so happens that we had planned to go to the state fair the day after my birthday....how could I pass up cheese curds and mini doughnuts! I paid for it...after reading about foods to avoid, fatty highly processed foods is on the top of the list. And guess what, I had another "attack" yesterday. I did not want to go in and rack up another medical bill because God knows we don't need that right now. So I waited it out...wow, some of you know that I had Olivia by c-section because she was breech, I never felt labor pains, but if they were anything like this...no thank you! Four hours into the pain it finally started to go away. Now its time for me to make a change, eating and diet wise.
Onto happier subjects!

More on the state fair later!
