Happy birthday, Angie!

(gained one pound since yesterday...stupid cheeseburger!)

Gary- Have fun with Angie. Happy Birthday Angie. Hey, you can tell how much beer I drink. Not even root beer.

Jeanette- Just get in what you can. Every little bit helps. I would like to just curl up into a shell right now and not come out for a while. Everything hurts and then TOM is blessing me with cramps. UURGH!!

Wee- Good luck with the tests. And by the way, PLATEAUS SUCK. BIG TIME!!!

Brit- Congrats on the house. Fill us in.

Nothing good happening with the scale here. I'll have to wait until TOM hits the road.

Thanks, mt! I did 35 minutes today. Weekdays are just so BLAH for me! And It's so depressing...I'm gaining since Sunday! I'm probably eating too little though, tbh. I'm just not hungry.

Thanks for the well wishes, Mindy!

I actually heard back from the doctor today-- turns out it's bad

I'm going in for surgery sometime this week-- I'm getting an MRI tomorrow to get everything checked out. This might be the reason for my plateau!

(ugh ugh ugh) I'll write more later--when I find out more

Geez, weegreen...I'm sorry it's bad news! Good luck on the MRI and surgery.

I just did another 5K to see what I'd get.....52:26! Down six minutes!!!!

Wee- Sorry it was not good news. Let us know how you are. I hope everything turns out okay. Our thoughts are with you.

Thanks guys--
I went in for an MRI today-- I have an ovarian cyst that is THE SIZE of my abdomen (from the belly-button to the nethers, spine to belly, as well as hip to hip). I get a call on Monday from my doctor: Probably some kind of panicked call telling me to go to the hospital to get it removed that night!

Weirdest part of it all is that I had no idea until about 3 weeks ago, when I thought maybe that's what was going on (no idea it had even gotten that big). My guess is that it's been growing all year.. *sigh*

So--I may not be on much after this weekend, due to being in the hospital, and all that... We're all trying to keep up on the bright side, and for the most part, we keep the humor in the conversation (like the free-excuse tummy-tuck I'm getting!) -- But it's pretty scary.

I got to keep all of the pictures from my MRI- which are really cool (but still pretty freaky that that's ME)-- and it's so bizarre to see this mass in my abdomen.

My family and friends are being amazing-- I already knew I was blessed to have them in my life, and this is wonderful (and terrible) confirmation

Thank you, everybody, for your thoughts and support-- I'll post again soon (and be reading up on everyone's progress!!!)

Good luck on your surgery. It will be such a relief to get rid of that cyst.

EZMONEY · 01-09-2009, 11:25 PM

KAT You are in my prayers!

Jeannette311 · 01-10-2009, 10:09 AM

Good luck with the surgery! My grandma had a cyst the size of a grapefuit a couple years ago...turns out she had it since my uncle was born...in 1954! They knew about it then but didn't remove it! She's fine now...that woman is healthier than I am!

You'll pull through just fine, and make sure to let us know how you are when you're able to!

mtiger · 01-10-2009, 04:48 PM

Wee- That's a pretty big cyst. Just think how good you will feel when it is gone. It will be kind of like having a baby.

I'm sure you are nervous, but rest assured they will take great care of you and you will be fine. Please let us know how you are doing. You will be in all our thoughts and prayers.

Got the scale moving in the right direction today. Hope it keeps going down.

Jeannette311 · 01-11-2009, 12:03 AM

Totally overate today...by 700 cals!

Oh well, a bit more excersize tomorrow and a lot more water should get me going! I'm well ahead of my 1 pound a week loss target, so eating so much today won't set me back as badly as it could have!

blondebritbrat17 · 01-11-2009, 08:30 AM

Wee- I will be thinking of you! Just take it easy.

My eating hasn't been any better due to the fact I haven't been able to go to the grocery store. I'm a little afraid to look at the scale. But I have been sticking with portion sizes and not super sizing them and trying to stick with chicken from fast food places or restaurants or even ordering the kiddie sizes. I'm up this early on a Sunday morning to do laundry and then go to the grocery store finally and do some cooking to get ready for the work week then I'm off running to visit my mother. She's been pretty sick already from her first day of chemo this past Thursday. She had an allergic reaction to a new anti nausea medication and it caused her to have a bad migraine so she may have to stick with her old ones. The house inspection was done yesterday and we are not buying a lemon or anything so whew. Now we are just waiting on the paperwork to go through then sign them and get the keys to the house.

I am thinking about getting a Wii and a Wii Fit to have some fun but get a bit of exercise in other than the treadmill and dance videos. Hopefully my husband will participate too. But that'll have to wait for a month or so due to everything that's going on.

Have a great day everyone!
