Lily, winter has hit here, too. I love my animals, but those "people" -- aaaargh! Something not right in their head. Here is my darling Hernanda the Ratonera being asked to pose with Houston.

Lilly- sometimes people in volunteer situations are not nice people. I had something happen to me this summer with a group I work with on a volunteer basis and was lied to, told not to tell people how "smart I am", etc. He later apologized but I don't trust him now. I am sorry you have not been treated kindly. Just remember, once people show you who they are, believe it.
Splitbean- who is the golden retriever? I am a big fan of the breed!

Hi Ducky- nice to see you here again. Hermits has not been as busy, but we still like to talk here. I am not so much of a hermit as I was during treatment and after, but still love my Hermits!
I heard there is a big storm coming to the east coast. The northeast got going late on the whole winter/snow thing, but think you are rolling along now?

Ducky- I remember Stella! She is so cute. Perfect name for that cutie.
How is the snow back east my east coast sisters? I have a friend in the NJ area that says she has 16 inches so far and it is still coming down?

We've been getting snow since about 9 a.m. here in my area. I'd have to hazard a guess and say we must have at least 4 inches by now. They said my area might see as much as 10 inches.

All shoveled out here! Was helping the hubby today with the clean-up and got a face full of snow when he threw a shovel full in my direction and I turned to say something to him! Almost put a handful down his back!

Mommy- I love a good snow fight! Our snow never sticks around long enough to do anything with it!

Hi everyone
We had a beautiful day here, the sun was out and the snow was melting and I didn't see my breath when walking . I have had major gi issues this month, but things seem to be on the mend, kept me at home more than I wanted to be. I am off to see surgeon for reconstruction tomorrow . We have a very long wait in Alberta and was surprised when I got a phone call at the beginning of January. My radiation finished a year ago and herceptin last May , so I am good to go

Lookforward- sorry to hear about your GI issues. I have had a lot myself lately. Today was a not good day on that front. I hope you are feeling better and hope the recon apt goes well!

Sorry to hear your tummy is acting up, I felt fine with mine. I did have have a bit of a stomach bug at the beginning of January , I wonder if my gi is overly sensitive from chemo damage.
It was our anniversary yesterday and we went to a Turkish restaurant with our kids (they are 30 and 32 so not young) and had a fabulous meal. My husband had the best rack of lamb and the three of us shared a variety of food, will go again in the near future,
Today we meet our financial advisor downtown, then went for lunch. This has to stop , I an not overweight but have a puggy middle and I need to get that under control. I saw a dietitian before Christmas and need to follow her suggestions. I get my Fitbit steps of 10,000 per day, but it is not enough to lose weight, I am also not twenty anymore , so the weight stays.

Lookforward- are you taking Tamoxifen or any of the AIs? They cause weight gain and hard to loose weight on them. Going to see my MO tomorrow and will have a chat about this.
Happy Anniversary. Dinner sounded delish!

I take tamoxifen, I did mention that to the dietitian but she thinks I just need to reduce calories and have very little sugar, which is true , but you got to live a little. Okay I did make two pies this month, January for me is a higher calorie month. We have cold winters ( sounds like an excuse to me) and you crave higher calorie foods. It will be interesting to hear what your doctor has to say

Lookingforward- I gave up sugar the year I went on the AIs, and eat very little. Pretty much stick to proteins and lean vegetables. I get all the same lectures and advice about the calories and way I eat, do what they say, and still difficult. I think they should do a good clinical study on the meds and weight issues.
I do know there are some studies about women and weight gain after treatment, but not said why? They think the effects of chemo and or the meds that change things. I have talked to some women on other threads who have shared those and will post if I can find some good info on it.
My BS apt was postponed yesterday so I did not have to get her lecture again! I expect to have some better conversations with the the MO today.0 -
