Long story, but I had an abdominal ultrasound today to make sure I don't have ovarian cancer. Wow, that was quite a sentence! I'll give the results when I have them.
One discovery - my liver is fat. Apparently having breast cancer wasn't enough to scare the fat-gal habits out of me so my body is shooting up another flare. Now I must get absolutely serious about losing weight, exercising, and eating healthy.
Now yes I'm a good cook, love vegetables, and truly enjoy a good long walk. But I'm basically lazy about those things. I'm so busy and active in other areas of life but OY the thought of washing and chopping veggies every day.
And I must really say goodbye to the
Satanic Big Macs. I only have about one per month, but they are officially history. As our dear
Dr. Monkey says "that stuff will kill you". I'm thinking heavily on the documentary
Supersize Me wherein the hero nearly ruins his liver with a McDonald's diet.
So time to strap on the walking shoes and dress that salad. Any and all suggestions and encouragement are welcome.
As I've mentioned, I'm not real keen on Valentine's Day. It's a retail nightmare designed to make nervous men buy all manner of nonsense at Walgreen's. My husband is a marvelous man, and we show our love 365 days a year. So I don't need a $4 piece of paper from Hallmark to prove it. The cheesy-ness of all of it creeps me out.
