  • In that instant I would have interceded by blocking and potentially pulling the other dog away from my dog. I have been known to pull other dogs off of him when they get to aggressive. When I take my dog to the park, I do not socialize with other people. I watch my dog which is a 17 mo Saint Bernard mix especially since I…

Went through 6 rounds of chemo, bilateral masectonomy / ovaries removed, and 3 months of radiation. Living with lymphodema as a result of the radiation. One failed reconstruction surgery due to radiation damage and just…

  • If it is a lymphatic massage, it is especially for people with lymphodema. After bilateral masectonomy and lymphodema caused by radiation, I had them three times a week for 3+ months and while they help circulation, I have not lost weight with them.
  • We got our Mojo, mastiff mix (with what we do not know - looks just like a full blooded), from the animal shelter. He is the best dog ever!! He sheds (a lot) but hardly drools and is a couch potato. This was actually the third shelter he was in due to having an eye issue and needing surgery. He topped out at 135 which is…
  • Just a short note, I am going for a CT scan this afternoon since the doctor does not know what is going on. He did give me a prescription for Vicodin in order for me to rest which I promptly took after eating supper and finish my first quantity of Barium. I fell asleep by 7 pm and woke up to get another dose at midnight.…
  • Happy Monday! Lexie - Congrats on the 2teens! Glad to hear you had a wondeful Black Friday! And what willpower! Hope that HCG continues to be good for you! Remember one day at a time sometimes it is an hour at a time but you will do it! Becky - Midnight shopping? Ickk! Hope you got all the deals you were hoping for! I, we,…
  • Happy Thursday aka Turkey Day! Just wanting to wish everyone a Happy Turkey Day! Even those who are not celebrating across whichever pond. I would like to take a moment and say THANK YOU! I am blessed to have such supportive friends in my life. It isn't easy going through what we are doing but you make it fun and not so…
  • Lexie - It is all about one day at a time. Each day gets minutely better than the last. My way of coping was bad. I cleaned and worked and slaved over the children who were 2 and almost 3 at the time. I lost almost 60 lbs in 4 weeks because I couldn't eat. My mom about skinned me when I finally moved back home. Granted I…
  • Happy Wednesday! Staci - Holiday Baking....sounds yummy! I used to bake mini breads to give to the neighbors and by the time I got done baking I didn't want to eat any of it (except for the cinnamon swirl bread of course). ReNae - I have yet to decide if I like it. It is a little redder than what I am used to being but I…
  • Happy Tuesday! ReNae - Sounds like you had a grand old time! I love the fact that you are planning ahead! Way to go! Staci - Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with family! Steph - I am soo glad that a stressful day turned into such a wonderful evening! You are a fantastic whistler and wow that is a lot of poundage! Becky -…
  • Happy Monday! ReNae - Pecan Pie is yummy, but my downfall is the potatoes, stuffing, and all those high carb no-nos. My husband thinks I am crazy for wanting to go to the gym Thanksgiving morning. Oh, well it's not like he is going to go with anyway. ((Lexie)) - It is hard, but you are an amazing woman and will get through…
  • Happy Friday! ReNae - So...turkey or lasagna? What a way to spend time with your 14 yo! Steph - Today is a new day. As for the gym, how about a compromise? Maybe a day of light yoga and stretching not anything strenuous or competitive? Staci - Way to go on your protein! Have fun at the movies! Becky - Awesome Job! I knew…
  • Happy Thursday! Julie - Hmmm...maybe I will try some. Awesome workout at the gym! Elliptical is still the bane of my existence! Nice NSV! Lane - Thank you! The question is will it be comfortable in time for the Christmas party I am going to December 9th. Sorry to hear about your HRM and you are right - You WILL do it.…
  • Happy Wednesday! Staci - I hope that your son is watching his back! Good luck on the warrior dash! - And a Turkey Trot? You go girl! Cynthia - Way to go signing up for the 5K! I have never had clams before...maybe that should be one of my 5 foods I try this month. I believe that you have more compression garments then I…
  • Happy Tuesday! ReNae - Wow! You are making me tired! Enjoy the gym! Cynthia - That is wonderful about the swimsuit and pants. And just to let you know I have been wearing my lymphadema sleeve at the gym and I think that I am going to have to get a new one soon because it is starting to becoming loose as well. Hope you had…
  • Happy Monday! Julie - Hope that your new start from the little vacay is going well! Steph - Nice to have you back! It is hard not to have a family that supports! But you do have one here and you can rant all you want but in the end you have to make the decision that you can live with. Talk to your hubbie and decide what to…
