Default I'm Coming Back!!!

Hi there all you groovy chicks!!! I sure did miss you all!

Well, I'm coming back! I'm so sorry to have dropped out of touch, but the honest lowdown is that I got some bad news fa while back from my oncologist which send me into a tailspin. I won't try to sugar coat things.....I was some kinda sick and had to have a good hunk of my intestines sent to the trash.

BUT....on the more positive side, things are looking good... even though I'm not. I've gained a major portion (but not ALL) of my weight back, but I'm cleared by the doctors for takeoff. After my checkup this week I should be good to go. I'm ready to get back control of my life and that includes control of my weight.

Looking back, I should have never "dropped out" just because I had to stop Atkins. But that's looking back and I'm all about looking forward these days, so look for me soon on a chat near you!
