Another Dr's Appt

 Today was the follow up from my breast appointment/MRI. Of course, my Dr has not received the results (the MRI was done at the end of June) so hopefully when she does get those, they are all normal.

She said because of my Chek2 mutation, I'm at a higher risk for breast cancer and that is why I wanted to check and see if HRT would be ok after my hysterectomy. And she would prefer I didn't, because by getting the hysterectomy, I would be cutting my breast cancer risks in half. But if I take the hormones, it would be the same as if I kept my ovaries. Ummm, no I will take the hormones because wow the perimenopause I experienced before the WLS, was not a happy thing at all. Fuck that. 

It's still a win for me, because though my chances don't go down, at least I will remove one potential cancer issue in my ovaries and I would not be experiencing peri/menopause for a decade of my life. Because seriously, that is some kind of crazy bullshit.

Last week...

 You know, some days and some weeks are just better than others. This week has been very, eh - very unmotivated. Which is life, some time is just like that.

My weight has dropped, slight regain and honestly, I am in Onederland, so I am ok as I keep losing in general. I don't need to race.

I met with a different Dr at my 3 month follow up, as mine was out. I did not like this Dr nearly as much, he was too much - in your space - and I just don't need that. But he had some valid information and even if I don't personally like him, information is at least unbiased. Overall, I've lost 51 lbs since my first appointment and 12.8 since my last appointment. Not bad. 20 lbs more to go to hit goal and then, then life will get harder probably because I want to lose another 25ish after that. So if I can keep this mostly steady, in the next 3 months I should be able to lose the 20 lbs and then the following 6 months the remaining 25ish. Goals!
