This post might be a little TMI

Weigh in- I started at 233 and currently weigh 214

Also, this is a guy I can relate to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0q6Gc23ZtPA

So this post is pretty much going to be a bit TMI.

Don't read it if you get squeamish about crotch troubles.





























ok. So here's what's going on. After the surgery I haven't been able to get enough liquids in me, which means I'm pretty much open for bladder infections. This sucks, it hurts to pee. Also, on top of that I've had an obnoxious to mild yeast infection. This isn't something I didn't see pop up while doing research.

For the yeast infection I've basically been doing home remedies like wearing cotton undies, drinking a lot of cranberry juice, and going commando with loose pajama bottoms at night. When the inevitable bladder infection reared its ugly head I broke down and bought some cranberry supplements and some garlic pills. Supposedly garlic is good for yeast infections which I hope once that clears out the bladder infection won't be far behind.

Also, I've noticed that whenever I eat anything I have to make a running dash for the bathroom anywhere from 5-20 minutes later. I am usually not a pleasant camper after that. I've started carrying my own can of air freshener and I'm tempted to also bring my own roll of toilet paper too.

The best part about working at a nursing home is that everyone is already used to the smell of poo and the unattractive sounds that usually comes with it.
