davidsprincess's Journal, 13 Apr 24

Had a right partial mastectomy. I prefer saying lumpectomy. It is the same thing and sounds less serious. Somehow tissue was taken out but I gained 6 pounds. Same thing happened when I gave birth to my daughter. Had an 8 pound baby and came out with a 15 pound gain. Hoping to feel back to normal soon. Thankful there is very little chance that it is cancer but wishing I could do all the things I need to do around the house. Beautiful weather here and Saturdays are my day to get everything done- yard and house and groceries- but I can't lift more than 5-10 pounds for 2 weeks and it is a terrible thing to have to rely on others. Very blessed that I made it through without issues and looking forward to getting back to business weight loss-wise next month. I have 2 dogs looking at me- well 1 of them is wondering what is going on and why I'm not taking them on walks. The other is too dumb to notice anything is different. Just checking in. Hope you all are well.

Same for me, two years ago, mine was cancer...the med I take to block estrogen, is making it difficult to lower my weight. I feel so huge after living a life of being the "small one." You will breeze through sooner than you think--then just focus on staying healthy and doing whatever you can proactively to even improve a healthy status!

Praying that God will heal you with a quick recovery. I wouldn’t worry about the gain, it might just be if they pumped you full of fluids during surgery.

DP, was the lump egg sized, or is that what had to be removed? I know they want to get all the margins. I hope you're feeling back to your normal self soon & receive nothing but good news ❤️

No sherry- that was the size after getting the tissue around it... is my understanding. Thanks all. Off to church. More beautiful weather here.

Lumpectomy is a better term. DP, please rest and take care of yourself, no matter how hard it is to stay down. If, actually, when that annoying little voice starts telling you that it's okay, just go do whatever needs to get done, please remember to just slap that right out of your thoughts. Nothing is so important that it has to be done right now or can't be done by someone else. I know I have shared this with you before - If you don't take care of yourself, how are you going to be able to be there for your family. Also, remember that you are teaching your daughters how to care for themselves. I apologize if I come across as preachy, that's not intention. I simply want you to honor and care for the person you are, the person God has made you to be and not define yourself solely by what you can accomplish physically. Praying for good results on the 17th. 🩷🙏 Please let me know if you want any information on companies that will help with getting you evened out. 😃👍
