I received a lovely text from my amazing friend Erin this weekend. She and Angie ran the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure in my honor. Angie had 2 other loved ones she dedicated her time to as well. So special! Here they are with my name on their little papers. It meant so much to me I cried!
I am so grateful for the love and support that has been pouring in. And so grateful for the donations being made to cancer research.
Many of you know that I packed on about 25 pounds of pudge during my cancer treatment last year. It was so discouraging as I had already worked so hard to lose about 70 pounds. Stinkin' cancer. Not enough to threaten my life, gotta pack on the pudge too?! When I was home with my family over Christmas my Dear Friend told me about this movie on netflix, "Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead." I can't tell you how much the title resonated with me. The movie touts the benefits of juicing, (not to be confused with steroid use...haha), vegetable juicing. I figured it would be a good idea to try it. I had juiced veggies during chemotherapy at the suggestion of someone who beat Stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer....but honestly, could not stomach the thought of it for awhile after chemo. Fast forward 2 months since I started my "Reboot" and I am down a glorious 25 pounds. First of all, I feel like I have found my secret weapon. Second of all, yes! 25 pounds! Woot woot! ...
That is so awesome Zee!!! I'm so glad you have so much support! Keep fighting the good fight!
