I Did It!

It's no secret that since my cancer diagnoses and hysterectomy I had gained weight. A lot of people out there think that if you have chemo you will lose weight etc... Well, that is totally not true. One of the biggest side effects (besides the obvious) is weight gain. Chemo = weight gain. Hysterectomy = weight gain.
Menopause = weight gain. I had a lot stacked against me. But, I did it. In the past 9 months I've lost 44lbs. I'm finally back into a size 6. I feel good about myself again. I'm excited about summer. I'm excited about bathing suits.

I DID IT!

Awesome for you!! How!? I always manage to keep that extra 10 :) which makes me a chunky size 10. I'd like to be a lean, mean size 10!
