No change on the scale today but still ok with that. It warmed up today... it's -14 and we expect to be up to -7 tomorrow. I think I will finally wash the salt debris off my car tomorrow. My TOM is missing (since last week of December) although I have all the symptoms for the last two weeks (bloating, cranky, tummy ache, cramps, etc.) but it just hasn't happened. Don't get me wrong, I don't miss it one bit, but I am wondering if it might be affecting my numbers?
OK, confession time. There is something that I have been keeping on the "back-burner" since Christmas Day. I found a lump in my right breast on Christmas Morning. I was initially shocked; the dreaded "C" word did enter my thoughts and then I decided to take it one step at a time (so that I don't completely freak myself out). On Dec. 27th I called and made an appointment for a mammogram; I was so lucky to get an appointment for Saturday, January 11th (someone must have cancelled). My sister is a cancer therapist so I had her do a quick examination of the lump. Anyway, as the day draws closer it is moving from the back of my mind to the forefront. I am deciding not to worry or do any research on this topic but there is just a modicum of angst in the background. This is my second mammogram (first was 2 years ago and there were no lumps then) and so, I will wait to see the outcome of this one. Regardless of the outcome, I am leaning towards having the lump removed. Stay tuned.
For the last few days I have been having a very light breakfast and eating heavier through the day. In addition, I find myself having something even after 8 pm. I am going to eliminate that and stick to tea or water at that time of the evening. I'll see if that makes a difference. Have a wonderful day all! I will catch up with your journals throughout the day.
