With that said, I did have a great trip visiting with my fam in Chicago and Kentucky.  I also was able to sneak in a last minute visit with a &#8220;friend&#8221; the night before I left Chicago, you might have seen the update on my site of the selfie I took the morning after?!?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Where am I in my weight loss journey?  I had a slight gain, less than two pounds during my two weeks of travel, but I&#8217;m back on track.  My meeting on Saturday I am down a total of 50.8.  I am actually meal prepping for this week so that I know I will stay on track.  As always, I thank you all for your support and encouragement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, I wanted to talk a minute about my overall health.  I realized this past week that I am coming up on my 5 year anniversary of being diagnosed with Follicular Lymphoma.  It really does not feel like it has been 5 years, but here we are!!  I must say, I feel better today than I can ever remember and I am so very blessed.  I know there are sooooo many people out there that have it so much worse than I ever did.  But with that said, that first year was life changing and it really makes you think about like and the choices you make.  Right now I am getting checked every three months, I go in and draw labs to check all sorts of things, LOL.  Since I came back from Chicago\/Ky sick my Dr had me go in for an IVIG which is a treatment that helps boast my immune system and I&#8217;m having another one in March.  My levels are always low and just a side affect of my cancer.  I go in and I&#8217;m there for like four hours getting the IV.  This treatment I had a couple side affects, which are normal for this drug.. two days after I had a horrible headache and the chills.  But like I said, I can&#8217;t really complain.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have had a couple people ask about my wishlist, so I went and updated it with a few items.. some are personal and some I will shoot in.  I have been very motivated lately and shooting a lot of new content, so if you want to see me in something special, send it to me.  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/hz\/wishlist\/ls\/4QJV08UB0L7M?ref_=wl_share\">CLICK HERE FOR WISHLIST <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well I&#8217;m a little late in posting since my little get away.
