It's all relative...when BC comes to visit I think you deserve to indulge yourself! Seriously, I know that some ladies go on to better their lives and selves etc etc but I decided to chill a bit more and put less pressure on myself and just enjoy life's little joys a bit more. So, as my friends went off to training after school drop-off I'd drive by in my lttle Peugeot with the roof off, waving madly saying, "Anyone want to join me for cake and coffee?"!!! And instead of racing around cleaning the house I'd put my feet up a bit more with a good, no-brain-necessary magazine!

So, I have indulged myself and can't believe nearly 5 years has passed. The cellulite has now well and truly set in and I feel I WANT to do something about it now. I used to be an aerobics and squash junky...gone are those days for sure...these days I'll just make sure I walk each day...and work up a sweat. And hopefully I can get a game of squash in each week.

As for weight...I dropped 12 kg with chemo, leaving me at 40.5 kg. I have found it a bit scary putting weight on as I didn't want to get to used to fattening myself up!

I lost a good 5 kg in the first week of diagnosis, I guess due to shock. And I was very nauseous through chemo. I remember my oncologist said to me that just because I was small, didn't mean she would lighten up the dosage of chemo since it was so aggressive. I nearly didn't make it through!...but am so glad I did.
