Moving from conspicuous to conscious consumption and doing reviews along the way.  Find plenty of unsponsored reviews of Quince, Everlane, Grana, and Cuyana on the site!  I'm working towards a minimal waste lifestyle, and oh yea I love bags >.<

Weekend Update/Ramblings

Hi guys, I’m alive and kicking! Well more like alive and trying not to hunch over as I walk, but still alive lol. The pain from surgery is gradually getting better every day and I’m on less pain meds (at least I’m off the hard stuff). My stomach is still slightly puffy but nowhere near as big as it was. The fibroids were a total of 8 pounds!! Losing 8 pounds in one day feels amazing. In other good news, the fibroids were not cancerous so I don’t have to worry about that (there was a very small possibility that they were cancerous which would have been “terminal” as my doctor put it). Now I’m slowly getting into the swing of things and being careful not to pick up anything heavy (including my 23-pound 9 month old). It’ll be another 4 weeks or so until I can safely pick her up, so my mom and my husband are taking care of most of the baby duties (which to be honest feels like I’m on vacation lol).
