Look at me! Maintaining through Christmas 🎄 ♥️ 🍬 🎅 🎁

I am determined not to end up a stone heavier like I do nearly EVERY year!

Just 45minutes difference in these photos! I hadn't been to the loo or eaten or drunk anything, nothing had changed. By the time I returned home from work I was blown up like a balloon ... unfortunately with endometriosis the lesions in my abdomen that are entwined and embedded in my organs results in a pulling/dragging feeling .. like many elastic bands stretching out amd causing pain.

Endometriosis is NOT BAD periods!! I don't actually have periods!!

I hate my body when I feel like this. But I have to remember it's a flare up might be a few days, weeks or months but it will pass.

I'm so lucky to have my gorgeous girl looking after me and the love of my life taking the reins when I just can't anymore 💜

*Endometriosis is EVIL*

I have Stage 4 Endometriosis - I have been lucky enough to have my beautiful daughter and day to day it doesn't effect me too much with the pain. However, I am currently struggling, my body feels like its failing. I don't want to do it anymore I want it to be "fixed" unfortunately this is invisible to people around me.. It's not the only invisible condition I live with every.single.day!

Anyone else struggling with Endometriosis I hope you are not left for as long as I have been for a range of reasons but mainly because my consultant is thorough and doesn't want to be in a situation where my choices are taken away, not just about having more children. I don't want to "wait" any longer I want to be "fixed"

If you have or know someone with an invisible condition be mindful of them "moaning" you are the person/people theu feel safe enough to vent to. One thing after another for you is our entire lives! I'm lucky I have a very supportive partner who puts up with my moaning and picks out the days where I am really not coping and takes charge 💜
