New Year

I don't really have any updates.
I've done well on calorie deficit the past few days.
Yesterday I had a 1200 deficit.  I managed to burn 3400 calories without working out.  How did I achieve this magnificent number?  Hot flashes.  On average, I burn 2 calories a minute.  When I'm having a hot flash it triples, and I had hot flashes all goddamn day.

Oh, I thought of something.
I'm on quite a bit of estrogen right now, to try and get my hormone levels regulated so I can lose weight like a normal person.  I've noticed some twinges of pain in my abdomen, like, endometriosis pain.  Nothing severe, just.....  I don't know, that same old pain I lived with for 14 years.  I'll have to call my hormone guy to let him know.  Estrogen is what will help me lose weight, and keep my hot flashes down, but estrogen is also what makes the adhesions in my pelvic area grow.  It was impossible for the surgeons to get them all, since a lot of them were tiny, so there's always the danger they could come back.  I've not had any problems until now.
It's frustrating.  I can't get my hormones up to snuff for weight loss without my pain coming back.
Don't get me wrong here people.  I wouldn't take that surgery back for anything.  I hated my goddamn uterus and if I had the chance to take it back, I wouldn't.
The weight gain would have happened anyway.  The pills they had me on didn't get rid of the pain completely and knocked out my estrogen, so I had started to gain weight even before the surgery.  About 25 pounds to be exact.
It's all just a big, sharp, double edged sword.

Hopefully someday I can be healthy.
