Okay, I was at the massage therapist yesterday. He specializes in the pressure-points and keeping my lymph moving. This lymph moving thing is especially important in that arm and side where the surgeon extracted nearly every lymph node--possibly all of them. If you don't know--it can be life-threatening to get a build up of fluid. In the minor scenario, you are in a lot of pain. Getting the situation reversed is an arduous task. I am very fortunate. I keep after this to prevent the return of an arm being twice as large as the other.
Anyhow--he was like a cheerleader. He says I don't realize how much I am changing. Every time he sees me, there is a dramatic change, and I don't notice it. I am sure he is right. I also had acupuncture right after the massage. This two-appointment scenario gives me the most bang for the dollar. (ha) I had been given a small scholarship that allowed me to have three treatments and I made them go as far as possible--spreading them two-weeks apart. I am hoping that I will be able to have one such visit a month. That would be awesome.
I was thrilled to see the scale drop another pound this morning. It had just been sitting tight at the 204 mark. Yesterday we went to the birthday party for the youngest Great Granddaughter. OMG --well, there was bacon wrapped pork and chicken legs--off the BBQ. There were a salad and some ranch dressing. I went extremely light on that salad dressing. I snuck one taste of Ashley's buttercream frosting off the cake plate. I truly avoid sugar. Well, this morning I was down the pound. I hope I drop more soon. Hurrah!
