As the Chemo Drips...

After beating ovarian cancer once, I've been re-diagnosed. Here I'll share my journey of chemotherapy and surgery including the ups and downs, laughter and tears and everything in between.

EXCUSE............

This summer my nephew got married.  I used his wedding as a reason to lose some weight, besides the fact that the one dress I really liked and wanted to wear was alittle "tight".  I did really good on the South Beach Diet, lost 12 lbs, thou it was hard at first since I LOVE carbs, and candy, and ice cream.  I did fit into the dress and lots of other clothes that had been pushed to the back of the closet, Woo Hoo, feeling good and on a roll,(pun intended).  Now however I'm using my reoccurring cancer and treatments as an excuse to eat anything and everything!  Lately it's been potato chips, the kettle kind, that I've never liked before.  And ice cream..and peanut M&M's.....and bread....I'm in heaven.  Just today I bought a loaf (2) of the freshest, softest sweet Italian bread from Kroger.  That with a homemade chicken pot pie that JoAnne made was a wonderful dinner.  I know from going thru this before that I'm like a bear going into hibernation, stocking up on food when I'm feeling good, knowing that it will be a challenge to eat anything in the up coming weeks during chemo.  So for now I'm enjoying the bread and candy, the ice cream is gone and I didn't buy anymore, Dairy Queen is right up the road..and I love heath bar blizzards.................
























oo, feeling good and on a roll (no pun intended)
