    Hello My Lovely LOST Ladies~
    I am happy to report that my hospital tests came back good. They did find a couple of lymph nodes that are enlarged which can be worrisome, but my white cell count has started coming back down on it's own. They said if my count is coming down on it's own it's probably not as bad as they thought. I got a new oncologist that I like much better...he's easy to talk to and takes the time to explain things without acting like I'm a bother for asking questions! I have a new self exam I have to do every two weeks or so...if there is any change in size or any pain, I have to go right back in. The lymph nodes had good translucency so that is a good sign. I was supposed to be released for 6 mos checks instead of 3 mos checks but if that's the worse that came of this I'm HAPPY!!!
    On an even happier note...my hubby and daughter bought me a bunch of new clothes for my birthday because my pants were constantly falling off!!! LOL And thank you all for the warm wishes!!!
    I will be traveling again soon for work! It's back to Oklahoma for me! I will be leaving Aug 17th through September 5th. My family is not happy but I will be well prepared with food prep this time...I have my isagenix!

    MdwstQT~((((((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))))))))) for you! Sometimes seeing family suffer is harder that if we were going through things ourselves because we CAN'T get them to see...which is frustrating! You need to do what's best for yourself at that point!!! We are here for you to vent any time!!!

    Em~ HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!himkad1jb5md.jpg I hope your day was as wonderful as mine! We definitely had BEAUTIFUL weather!!!

    Megan~ I wish I lived closer to try to do something to help you through these tough times...you have had way too many thrown at you one after another...but please know my prayers are with you! (((((((((((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))))))) for you!!!

    Well my friends...I have to get back to work....Have a FAB_U_LOSS day!!!

    Megan, you hanging in there is the best thing. It's so tough to lose a loved one and an easy comfort is to run away & hide. When I lost my dad suddenly I dropped off MFP for a year and a half & gained back all the weight I had lost plus some. I wish I had at least stuck around for the support I received here, even if I was double fisting brownies! If you ever need to talk you can PM me or call me 414-708-1940.

    Hi! I haven't been on MFP on a consistent basis lately. Looks like I've missed a lot!
    To those of you that are struggling, I'm praying for you.
    For those of you that have had successes, I'm rejoicing with you.
    Happy Birthday to the two birthday girls. My mom shares your birthday.
    I'm trying to get back on track. I really need to lose this weight for medical reasons and emotional reasons. Sometimes I just don't believe I can do it. It seems like such a daunting task. I'm working on my attitude!
    Hugs to everyone!

    Hi Everyone....

    I really do hope everyone is doing ok....and will check in again in a few days...

    Being killed by allergies this week. Doesn't help that one of my co-workers clearly feels she has to shower in cheap perfume before she comes to work. It stinks when your labored breathing has nothing to do with your workout, but more to do with a stuffed up nose. :/
