Is there anything more miserable than trying to lose weight?
Just harking back to the original rhetorical question that began this fun filled thread....
YES there is!
This week has been a series of mini-tornado's for me ...
After one illness after another, and a nagging and constant pain in my lower right rib area and between my shoulder blades I finally gave up the tough guy act and went and saw the Dr.
Probable gall stones she said and sent me off for an ultrasound (which takes days to get in!)
Imagine my shock when instead of gall stones they found a 'mass' in my liver and immediately organised a CT scan with contrast dye (yuk - that is not a pleasant experience!).
It took almost 2 days to get those results interpreted, and today my good doctor was able to inform me that it is highly likely that the tumor is benign - and while I do need to see a specialist and get an MRI to absolutely rule out malignancy (in bloody August!) she has said I can breathe easy.
It certainly put my battle to lose weight into perspective!
Meanwhile my feminine coping mechanisms have me massaged, manicured, eyelash tinted and morphing from a blonde to a red head - but hey - whatever gets ya through the day, right?!
Savour your food - lifes too freaking short!
