Well, I know it has been a while since I last blogged, something came up. I was diagnosed with a disc protrusion problem in my spine which caused left-sided sciatica. I needed the disc matter removed from my spine so that it did not block a nerve that ran down my left leg (causing unprecedented amounts of pain and lack of mobility). I had my surgery on May 14th at Vancouver General Hospital and am pleased to let you know that I am on the road to recovery. Regardless, it will still be a long time before I can watch an abdominal exercise commercial without cringing or tearing up!
I thought of blogging all my experiences, mostly so that I won't forget and many, many years from now, I can look at them and laugh. As all of you know, my blogs are purposefully funny and entertaining and I have done my best to make the most of even the bleakest situations so the next series of my blog entries is dedicated to my condition and recovery. My sincerest hope is that you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed observing and writing about my experiences.
And as a tie-in to my previous weight-loss blogs, I hope that the brand new Sonia Nanwani (or "Gimpy" as I am so affectionately called given my reliance on my walking stick :) with some less L5-S1 disc matter post-surgery would be a couple of pounds lighter. Hee hee!
Darn, who am I kidding....I got rid of some light disc matter not an entire butt cheek! *lol*
