Another appointment

So Dr. Z could not see me Friday so I went to see her yesterday.  Had blood work too so Friday should be a quicker treatment.  All numbers look good, no issues, got the okay to workout and lift weights - just take it slow, do lots of stretching, and keep hydrated.  I have started to put on some weight as my stomach adjusts and  don't want it to get out of control.  I also haven't lifted weights in a very long time and feel like I am becoming mushy.  So, I will try to put together a routine that will meet my needs for right now, burn some calories, build some muscle and keep me healthy.  I have downloaded a couple meditation tapes to help with relaxation, and I want to get a simple Yoga routine for morning and/or evening stretching, and then about a 30 minute light weight routine to use 3-4 times a week. 

I am feeling pretty normal but when I look in the mirror it is scary.  My eyebrows have become very thin and my lower eye lashes are almost gone except for a little fuzz so not much for my mascara to hang onto.

I am getting a little tired of looking at that face - it doesn't match how I feel.  Well, off to work in Centreville and then chemo tomorrow.  Here comes the weekend already.
