Hello... my name is Hollice (most calls me Holly),
I have been overweight (between 25 to 40 pounds) a good portion of my life. Just when I started to lose weight (about 20 pounds), I was diagnosed with breast cancer in May-2011. After several surgeries and several rounds of chemo, I managed to NOT gain or lose any weight. I did gain CIPN (Chemo-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy, Fibromyalgia and found out I also have Degenerative Joint Disease in my lower back.
After changing my lifestyle, eating and exercise, also adding more mindfulness; I have been slowly, VERY SLOWLY, losing weight.
It has been a very painful journey... so far.
