Voting For My Hair!

Well, the results are in and only 1 person wanted my hair to stay salt and pepper, 8 wanted it to be colored and foiled....thank God nobody wanted me to shave it off again, but that was a very easy hair style!! Hmmmm?? So NEXT Thursday 3/27/08 I am getting a trim, color and partial foil! I will be back to brown with cool highlights once again! I will post photos as soon as I take them!

Emma and I just got back from the vet, our Guinea Pigs have Scabies...oh what joy! Luckily they are breed specific and are only on the piggies! They have been treated, I will treat them again in 2 weeks and see if they are ok after that. Cage has been cleaned and scrubbed. Probably the newer GP Lulu brought them with her and gave them to the older GP Lucy! The poor girls! UGH!

Still at the gym training away: spinning like a crazy girl and lifting/weight training a few days a week.....gotta get ready for Aruba trip April 19-26th! Cannot wait to be under a palm tree, reading Cosmo and having a Pina Colada with the warm Aruba trade winds blowing over me! Ahhhhhh!

Bye for now, thanks for voting! I will come up with a new vote soon!! Kristin

Weight Watchers Week One

I lost 2.4 lbs this week! Only about 30 to go!!

Back to spinning and weight training also, after my 2 weeks of flu and pneumonia!

Spring Is Coming, I Hope!!

Well, here we are, March 11 2008. Hard to believe April 2007 was the mammo that started it all! I am so glad that year is behind us! On the doctor appointments: all is fine with surgeon, radiology and oncology. Next round is in May, when I see them all again after my 1 year mammo (also in May) That will be nerve racking I am sure. They will see scar tissue, want an MRI, maybe an ultrasound....maybe a another biopsy! I am prepared for all of it! Can't make yourself too crazy!

I had a bad last 2 weeks, got hit hard with the flu bug, and then that turned into pneumonia and had to take Levaquin for 10 days, finally knocked it out of me! I was so sick though, I think chemo was easier than this bug! I basically slept for almost 2 weeks!! I was out of the gym for 2 weeks also, just starting to get back to that now!

Speaking of the gym, I am still working out with my personal trainer, Tyson, once a week. He is good, kicks my ass!! Then I do spinning about 4 times a week, and lift/weight train 3 other days, plus two days of cardio. Only off on Fridays! Phew, I am tired just thinking about it!! I re-joined Weight Watchers, to try and get some pounds off.....even with all the exercise, I was just breaking even since I was eating more from working out, so hopefully I will start to drop some weight too. I will keep you all updated with that, maybe that will help me stay on track!! I do feel better from the exercising, my clothes are looser, and I have more energy! So that is good!

Keep checking back for my weight loss and exercise progress!!! The more words of encouragement I get, the better I will be, I know you will all be watching!!
