6 Month Hysterversary (Anniversary of Hysterectomy)

Posted on 05/01/2017 by Angela Conley • Leave a comment

Man, once you get past the days of recovery being at the core of every action, time flies by. At times, I felt impatient for the day I would no longer have to think about my injured body before moving or making plans. That liberation is the greatest mark of improvement since I had my … Continue reading →

16 Weeks Post-Hysterectomy: Where Am I Now?

Posted on 02/10/2017 by Angela Conley • Leave a comment

At this point, the weeks are starting to meld together into, well, months. It’s starting to feel like surgery was so long ago, which is not a complaint. I feel like my life is back, albeit an upgraded version. I absolutely love that I can sleep all night long without going to the bathroom. I … Continue reading →

8 Weeks Post-Hysterectomy: Chapter 2

Posted on 12/17/2016 by Angela Conley • Leave a comment

What is it about the 8 weeks post surgery that feels like a big milestone? Honestly, nothing has really changed since 1 or even 2 weeks ago. But plenty has changed since the last time I posted my progress here, which was after 4 weeks. It feels like a major victory. More important than the … Continue reading →

Yoga Poses for Fibroids

Posted on 11/20/2016 by Angela Conley • Leave a comment

This surgery journey has been no walk in the park–literally or figuratively. (But I can walk around the block now!) Rather, it’s been an enlightened stroll with baby steps. Before the surgery, once I had a proper diagnosis of my fibroid, I scaled back my exercise routine. I did this because I found I didn’t … Continue reading →

My Fibroid and Hysterectomy Journey

Posted on 11/10/2016 by Angela Conley • Leave a comment

Time is so weird. While these last 3 weeks feel like it’s been a long time, it also doesn’t. Especially since 75% of my time these weeks has been in my oversized armchair cozied up with a plush blanket, heating pad, and the TV. It’s a hard life, but someone’s gotta do it. To recap, … Continue reading →

A Surgery Action Plan for the Mind and Soul

Posted on 10/14/2016 by Angela Conley • 2 Comments

Doctors give us tons of info about how to physically prepare for a surgery–don’t eat this, drink only that, don’t wear deodorant–but they don’t tell us how to prepare mentally or emotionally. This is quite unfortunate when one addresses their health holistically. This, along with my Type-A tendencies, inspired me to create an action plan … Continue reading →

Sometimes We Just Need a Little Screw

Posted on 09/24/2016 by Angela Conley • Leave a comment

I believe in the power of symbols, so this little guy made quite a statement for me this weekend. I’ve been anxious over some female health issues lately, with not knowing what to expect or what’s wrong (hence, yesterday’s MRI). As an overthinker, I’ve been pondering the worst-case scenarios. To be fair, I overthink many … Continue reading →

Posted on 04/27/2015 by Angela Conley • Leave a comment

It’s easy to get lost in life sometimes. One thing that’s always helped me feel grounded and at peace is to think of everything I’m thankful for. With that in mind, I decided to try something new. Each week, I’ll post the current things I’m grateful for. Continue reading to see what’s got me feeling … Continue reading →

Day ???: No Diet Soda Challenge

Posted on 03/07/2012 by Angela Conley • Leave a comment

Over one month ago was my last post about eliminating diet soda from my life. Full disclosure: I have continued to drink it on occasion, just not nearly as much as I used to. And definitely with the intention I used to, which was of dependence. Continue reading →

Day 23: No Diet Soda Challenge

Another benefit to cutting out soda: less cans and/or plastic bottles. Which also means less trips to the recycling bins. 🙂 Continue reading →
