Day 30 - Your Goals for the Next 30 Days

I can't believe this is the last day of the challenge.  My last post - well, for this challenge.  And it wants me to go over goals.  Good gravy!!  I have to think about that.


  • I am going to try to avoid having my head explode at work - when a certain person sends me over the edge.  I can't afford to have my blood pressure skyrocket like it has done a few different times.
  • I am going to try and take some time for me - by that, I mean I want to get back into the gym and do some awesome water aerobics and some awesome biking.
  • I am going to try to do some more blogging - which isn't part of a 30-day challenge.
  • I am going to appreciate my hubby, my kids, my grandkids and my friends.
This has been so much fun - there has been a couple of times I have not wanted to make myself do it - but, now it's done and over.  Now I will have to find interesting topics of my own to talk about.

Here have been my favorites:

Pictures of Five Famous People You Find Attractive
Your Biggest Regret in Your Life
Interesting Facts About Yourself
Bullet Your Whole Day
Put Your IPOD on Shuffle and List the First Ten Songs
If You Could Have Any Job in the World, What Would it Be
A  Moment You Felt Most Satisfied with Your Life
Your Current Relationship

Here have been my least favorites:

How Have You Changed in the Last Two Years
How Important You Think Education Is
Your Earliest Memory
Your Zodiac Sign and if You Think it Fits You

I hope you have enjoyed this as much as I have - - maybe my cute daughter will find me another one to do!

CoCo's Journey - How Did I Get Here??

Malabsorption - definition - Malabsorption is a state arising from abnormality of food nutrients across the gastrointestinal tract.  Impairment can be single or multiple nutrients depending on the abnormality.  This may lead to malnutrition and a variety of anaemias (blood disorders). I have heard the term before.  But the first time I had heard it in response to me was a little over a week ago.  I was with my roommate daughter at her appointment and her doctor pointed to IVY and said, what's up with that??  So I told him.  And he said, people have no idea how hard it is when you have malabsorption.  People think you can just eat to make it better, but you can't. So let's go to the beginning.... If you have known me at all in the last few decades, you know that I was "morbidly obese".  I topped out at 245 pounds.  I had Type 2 Diabetes, high blood pressure, thyroid disease and stomach issues (gerd) for the last couple of decades and had taken...

CoCo's Journey - Answers!! Finally!!!

 Today I finally got answers!!!  I do not have Cirrhosis!!!  I am Pre-Cirrhotic.  Very close to that precipice but still not falling over the edge and falling into a place that I cannot get out of.  I had seen my gastric bypass doctor a while ago - and was given the wrong information.  I think he was looking at the headline and had not read the story.  It's something I'm good at, too.   My doctor explained that when I was overweight, the fat in my body was damaging my liver.  Then I had gastric bypass and that should have helped my fatty liver.  But, then I wasn't able to absorb the calories, so I became malnourished. My liver was not getting the proteins I needed in order to supply my body with the proper nourishment.  Every organ you have needs protein, and it starts in the liver.  So - the malnourishment started to affect my liver.  Leading to the state I'm in now. The thing I need to work on is getting off the diu...

CoCo's Journey - An update -- of sorts

 I was asked for an update.  So - I waited until my last appointment with my liver doctor to see what he was going to say.  What we were going to do.  What the hell is going on.   So - a little recap.  Mid August I was admitted to the hospital due to liver disease.  The initial diagnosis was cirrhosis of the liver due to malnutrition, which was caused by malabsorption. After a biopsy, that diagnosis was changed to pre-cirrhosis.  I had over two liters of fluid removed from my belly by needle aspiration the first day.  I left the hospital five days later with a PICC line with IV nutrition.  IV nutrition supplemented my regular diet for four months.  My PICC line was removed in December and now it's a matter of how my body adjusts as to what the steps are. Since August and having the IV nutrition, I gained over 40 pounds.  I was a little over 140 pounds when they disconnected IVY (my PICC line/nutrition/bag - that's her name...
