My Cancer Journey Journal

Tuesday, August 7, 2018

So, I’m down a little over nine pounds on day 92. Considering that I haven’t really been trying to lose weight, I’m very pleased with those nine pounds. It may seem slow to some but as long as I’m moving in the right direction and establishing healthy habits, I’m okay with it. I started keeping my food diary again today. I started exercising first thing in the morning again yesterday. Now, I’m trying to set those habits in stone. Sure I’m just starting again which leaves me twenty days to go but look how far I’ve already come. 😊

Must Read Introduction

I started this blog four years ago when I was 62. At that time, it was a means of tracing my health and fitness goals and titled Living With Intention. I'm happy to say that I did get fit with the help of our local gym and my fitness trainer. I did improve my diet and lost over 65 pounds. Everything was going great until last year when I was diagnosed with a return of endrometrial cancer that had metasicized to my lungs. Needless to say, my entire world changed. I'm now eight months in and my once strong, fit body is now exhausted with the least exertion. It's been an emotional and physically trying journey. So, I started this journal to not just help me but to help others who are traveling the same path and to help their loved ones to understand what the cancer patient is feeling. I've now been in both positions and I know how lost I've felt dealing with both so hopefully, I can help others avoid some of that and to know they are not alone.
