Spring Is Coming, I Hope!!



(Emma and Charlotte at The Aquarium Feb 2008 & Em at H.S. Musical On Ice Tour 2/2008)


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!!

I'm watching and you do look good and healthy. Once Charlotte is in school full days, I'll join you too. Walking and eating next to nothing isn't getting me anywhere. I am kind of dreading pool season...bathingsuits aren't looking that cute on me!
