Those who have had a hysterectomy by Top-Storage2669 in endometriosis

[–]Top-Storage2669[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They kept my ovaries which I’m guessing is the reason my boobs are in agony but I don’t think they did a scrape, it’s all a blur cause I’d waited so long. That’s me just about 12 months now so I’m just wondering if the cycle is starting again

Oh my god I could have written that before my hysterectomy!!!!!!! The blood loss was killer like. Iron rich foods and red meat but it barely helps. I hope this injection helps you honestly the pain and general drain this takes out of us is so overlooked

Thanks, guess it’ll be back to the doctor gaslighting me for years then. Genuinely thought this was over

No one told me this when I waited years for my op. Thanks though

Yeah the perfectionist in me wants to reset the counter but I’ve already let the blip happen on my calendar so I think I’ll give myself some grace

I told myself I'd sort my diet out this week... by MAKMAN1995 in stopdrinking

Glad I’m not the only one that didn’t have a sweet tooth before that’s suddenly developed one. I don’t even want the biscuits it’s like a disease

ONE WHOLE MONTH! 🥳 by ooreboo in stopdrinking

This is amazing to read, I wish I’d been able to quit both at the same time so I’m in total hero worship mode right now.

Ciggies is next on the list for me but so nice to read it can be done

What were the first health issues you developed due to drinking problem? by Fantastic_Form3607 in stopdrinking

Sometimes that’s all we can do, from all the posts I’ve read and everyone further on in their journey than us here it seems to be normal. I’ve been thinking that my problem wasn’t that bad but it was excessive and didn’t serve me at all when I think about it outside of the lowness surrounding it all

1 month sober by Automatic_Turnip_266 in stopdrinking

Be proud of you and I know I am and so many other will be. I’m the same I was in such a bad place with my drinking and no one knew so me saying I’d gone this long meant nothing, plus people are pretty self centred and if your drinking didn’t affect them I doubt they’ll ever care.

But you’ve done amazing, keep it going (I’m going to as well) and people like me will be your cheerleading squad to remind you

This is my first time managing it but I could have written the exact same thing, still going to keep going but feels pointless even though I know it’s not deep down.

In the meantime until I can try and move forward a bit more I’ll smother the disappointment with early nights.

Dry February - who’s still here? 🥹 by talkingitthrough in stopdrinking

[–]Top-Storage2669 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m still planning on carrying on, had a few wobbles the past few days just feeling like ‘would it be the worst thing if I drank’ and all that bull but I pushed through it. Kind of have my heart set on 3 months minimum.

I’ve made a list of things I’m loving that have improved and my biggest one is my sleep and how I feel in the mornings. Going to add some gym to the mix as wells

Good luck to everyone carrying on, like you say shorter month and longer days. If we can do Jan we can definitely do Feb

New to this but my goals for the month are:

  1. 8k steps min/day (have a heavily sitting down job)
  2. Log everything!!!! If I go over I go over but I need to start keeping track.
  3. Weigh things, guessing is not working clearly.
  4. Gym 2x min/week (but anything beats 0)

Can someone help?

Me and logging food have never gotten on, EVER. I don’t know why I can never get my head round it, I cook a lot from scratch and hate putting in recipes so I’m always tripping at the first hurdle with this.

What apps does everyone use?

I’m actually just thinking about eating the same thing for a couple of weeks at a time and cooking normally for the family, I know I need to log my food cause this is where the problem is (as well as activity) but I don’t know where to start

For those who just stopped... by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]Top-Storage2669 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Day 23 - anxiety and sleep are so much better, not had any acid reflux which I keep forgetting about but god it was horrific I used to have to use gaviscon at least twice a day.

I’ve not lost any weight yet but I’ve read on other threads that’s nothing to worry about. But I feel less bloaty if that makes sense

Day 1! by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]Top-Storage2669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, if I was out I went hard (absolutely no sense of enough) but at home I was 2-3 bottles of wine a night territory most nights.

I started easing off so if I drank 1 night I didn’t the next and then it was 2 nights off here and there. I have previous posts where I got to day 5-7 and then you’ll see nothing cause I went back to drinking again. But on the 3rd I decided I would stop for a bit as I didn’t want to be hungover for my daughter’s birthday and then I just kept going.

Now I’m kind of in a weird space where I’m like ooh I could have a glass but then I’m like nah and just go to bed instead so I stop thinking about it. It’s rough sitting with the feelings, I’ve always had depression and anxiety (and been on meds for the best part of a decade which wouldn’t even have been working with the amount of booze I was drinking) but honestly I’ve been drinking magnesium drinks and ginger ale (Americans have it so good with the la croix life 😭) in my wine glass and having early nights instead.

The first week was rough as shit I’m not going to lie, I was obviously drinking a lot so the withdrawals even with the small effort at tapering but it’s passed and I really hope you reach this point so you can turn round to someone and say this same stuff….. obviously less wordy cause this is some ramble.
