It Seems I missed 2013!

It seems I missed a whole year! It was a crazy one, my son was graduating and then I took both my children over to the UK to visit, which was a lot of fun and memories were made.

I went to see the cancer doctor who felt it best that I didn't have a mammogram as it was just too stressful and too much radiation to put into me. So I went for my check up and he said it all looked good and scheduled another check up for September but he told me I have to loose all the weight that I had put on since I started my treatment. Before the cancer I had been working out and got down to the 160s and felt good but as soon as I got the news about the "C" it didn't seem to matter anymore. I realize now I should have tried to carry on working out to keep me fit but I just felt too sick and sorry for myself! So after the doctors I decided that I would get back at it until my next doctors appt in September.

September came and I had lost 30lbs by not eating carbs and had even started going back to Zumba which helped and I was also back in the right frame of mind to do this. The doctor was pleased with my efforts and told me to continue on and I am hoping by April 2014 when my next appt is I will be in the 150s as this is what I want, and I want to do it for me.

Recently one of the Zumba ladies suggested I join them at Jazzercise and I thought why not if these older ladies can do it so can I!!! Well my first class I thought I was going to die as it was such hard work but I loved it and the weight is still coming off.

I know that my life will never be the same but I have to work with what I have an enjoy every moment and live it the best I can.
