So yesterday my SIL and nephew came with my phone and helped me set up it. Case is coming soon.

She stayed a while and told me she was sick For MONTHS after her bypass almost 20 years ago. That is why Wills mom was so upset when I got the surgery and that Will is going to do it.

But his sister understands that this will be good for his health and he should.

She also told me more about the fight they had the day of my surgery. She told me the hurtful things he said regarding their finances and the loan he’s attached to.

She’s still furious at him, he’s still a little mad too, but she said she’s going to work on getting him off the loan. She may buy his parents house. But that wouldn’t happen till 2023 cause that’s when he bankruptcy is over.

She’s making A Lot of money now and feels she can do this.

She also didn’t know the loan bothered him so much. I feel like I told her it did but we don’t talk about it much. He said his parents asked him to do this. She said he volunteered to do it after his uncle backed out of doing it. I dunno but I’ll be happy when he’s detached from it.

I know I had been bothering him about me buying a house alone but I can wait to 2023 for her to buy his parents house first. So I’ll leave it alone for now.

I drove today.

It wasn’t bad. I took turns a little slower than usual but it was fine.

Then I went to my mom’s to hang out with Emma. Turns out Emma is exhausting and after 2 hours of sitting on the floor it kinda hurt to breath cause I must have been sitting very hunched. So I drove home.

I attempted some ricotta but my stomach didn’t feel any better from it and then I took a 2 hour nap.

When I woke up I remembered I had fat free refried beans and heated some of that thinned with a bit of water. It went down well and accomplished what the laxative couldn’t. I pooped a couple of rocks.

It wasn’t a dramatic thing and I’m not done I just didn’t want to push too hard.

I guess I need to drink more since they were rocks, it’s just hard to get a lot of liquid down. It’s such small amounts at a time.

I dunno how to explain what it feels like when I eat. It’s like my stomach shudders with every tiny bite which doesn’t feel good but it only lasts a second. This is with all temperatures foods. I don’t think it will always be that way, but that’s the way it is now.

I dunno if I should be on the scale every day but Will asks and I want to tell him to encourage him.

My doctor told me that my job during the few couple of weeks was drinking water and protein shakes. Don't push to hard, it's ok to go slow. You will find yourself nearly constantly sipping on water.

You should NOT be on that scale everyday. LOL I bet if you talk with Will about the stress you may feel about getting on the scale everyday, he will understand.

At some point, I felt like, almost afraid to eat food. It become clear to me how someone could go from one eating disorder (binging or overeating) to another (not eating at all).

Let's not talk about the fact that I just ate 2 cookies. lol

I definitely gotta sip more frequently. And yes I do see how fear of food could lead to acting anorexic but I don't think I'll go that route lol
