Two messages in one day - you can tell I’m not busy today!!
Right – here goes – trying to do a catch up with your busy ladies!
Nicky – I think trying to slim down is the same for all of us, just takes so much effort. I’m doing the low carb which generally works for me – so far I have lost about 4lbs in two weeks, just hope it keeps going. Glad you had a good trip to Paris, even though it was very quick and then you had all fun when you got home – life is a b***h ain’t it? I envy your daughter – OH and I nearly went to live in Paris some years ago, but Peugeot bought Chrysler and we didn’t go – had been flat hunting and everything – what did I just say about life?
Madrid as well! You are lucky, hope the weather is good and I’m sure you will enjoy the food, etc.
Lisa – glad I don’t have to make decisions like yours about the recon, it is very difficult. Having choice of where to go helps in one way, but checking out which is best will take time, but it is better to be happy with where you are going. My battered bosom is now at least a cup size or two smaller than the other one so needs a bit of padding. Have sent for some thingies from one of the mastectomy co’s which should arrive today so will see how that looks. I think you are even braver having the teeth done, I always cringe when I see that on the makeover progs. Vein problems are the pits aren’t they – hope they come up with a good solution.
Lily: You are obviously enjoying yourself with the wedding fayres, etc. Only problem is the more choice the more confusion. The wedding venue sounds nice and the rules are a bit like the humanist funeral thing we did for my mum. “Any music you like but no God”
Love Max – my neighbour has just had a Tibetan puppy who bullies the two year old Wheaten terrier something rotten. Holiday house sounds great, we are going to Scotland to stay with friends in a couple of weeks time and, as they are serious walking people, am not going to have room in case for the walking shoes – shame that, what?
Glad your touchy feely check up went OK, I had one on Monday with my lovely onc. As I said in my brief message, am on the Arimidex but still debating the Herceptin and waiting for the results of the heart investigations. My Prof doesn’t seem too worried if I don’t go the Herceptin route but we will wait and see. Please can we just get all this messing about over and get on with life! My onc mentioned the dreaded mammo and my reaction was “if you think I’m putting my damaged bit in your squishing machine, you are mad!” “On no, not for quite some time, when the nerves are feeling better. We want to stay friends don’t we?”
Angie: am tracking your progress and sincerely hope you are OK. The wedding plans sound great and the slinky look is so much more elegant than the meringue!
Lorraine: Trying on bras is a nightmare even when your boobs are the same size – wherever you go they come up with different sizes! I am back in the underwired ones now and have an old one on which is fantastic fit, very comfortable, was from M&S but as I’ve cut out label since it scratched, don’t know what size it is!
Love to all
Will keep on reading you great messages
