An update just for me. Feel free to skip it.

Uhhh. Facebook is an evil, evil thing. Made me forget all about my pretty pretty blog.

Sniff.

Alas. The important bits.

Feel free to tune this out, this is for me. An update of sorts.

I finally know with 100% certainty what's wrong with me. I have PCOS. I got some medicine, Mertformin (Merkformin, really) to take twice... thrice daily. Side effects include diarrhea and an upset stomach (the insane urge to throw up everything in your belly).

I'm also on a diet.

I've lost 7kg so far. It was 8 during the heat wave, but that was probably just the loss of fluids. Still, there is hope.

Bought a bunch of bikinis. I'm told by reliable people they look OK on me. "As good as swimwear possibly can on your figure." is what I'm told, but we'll take it. A girl's gotta take a compliment where she can.

My periods are back too. I mean 6 days of seeing RED, cramps from HELL, and after that, blissfully blood-free. After almost a year of perpetual PMS, you have NO idea how good this feels. Literally NO idea. At all.

And this one you'll really want to ignore. Today I pooped 3 times. o.O. I'm still on the strict diet. I ate only these today:
- 1 slice of bread (with meat on top)
- 1 apple
- 1 slice of bread (with meat again) + 1 peach
- 1 apple
- 1 small bowl of salad with cheese and one small slice of my mom's Bday cake

I was way under the 160g carbohydrates mark, but... well. I have NO idea where it all came from.

True, I have to eat more than I used to, but I'm losing weight and well... expelling a lot of stuff too.

This is so very weird.
