I got some very good news today when I went to my gyno appointment. My mammogram and pap were good. The labs the gyno ordered for my TTOM problems were all good. The ultrasound showed 4 very small fibroids. The ovaries were good and endometrium was very thin. I told the Dr. about my most recent TTOM being perfectly normal. This was the first in a long time. She reviewed my thyroid records and how they have just gotten into range recently. She also noticed that I have lost weight since I was there last, probably from the thyroid improvements. She doesn't feel the small fibroids are the culprit. She feels that my TTOM issues have been from the thyroid. She didn't see any reason to even do the biopsy, unless I objected, LOL. Which I didn't. She wants to see me back in 3 months to see if things have continued to stay regulated.
Laura WELCOME BACK! It's so good to see you check in! We have asked about you and were concerned about you many times. Glad everything is OK and you are back!
Teacher Good job on the elliptical! Are you looking forward to the Thanksgiving break?

Tonight we are going out for our anniversary dinner. The restaurant had a limited number of reservations available. We will probably close the shop early in order to get downtown on time. I might not get a workout in today.

Deb You are still doing great with the workouts! Do you prefer yoga or Tai Chi?
Teacher Good job on the elliptical. Are you ready for a few days off?
Laura Just take it one day at a time. How was your tropical vacation? I don't think you checked back in since you went.
Diana: I like to do both Yoga and Tai Chi for different reasons. Yoga gives me a good gentle stretch after my high intensity strength training with DEFL. Plus, since it takes strength to hold some of the balancing poses, it finishes where DEFL left off in a more gentle calming way. Tai Chi is meditation in motion. It is balancing and relaxing while using my full range of motion. So I do Yoga on the four days of the week that I do DEFL and I do Tai Chi Chih six days a week. I take Sundays off. Today I have added Pilates to my weekly routine on the two days of the week that I do not do DEFL.

Teacher - I'm glad that the new job is working out well!!
