Wanted to drop in and say hi π I read the boards every so often throughout the past few years and itβs really great to see a lot of the same still here - but I was not actively working anything except survival π I ended up being diagnosed with two different types of breast cancer in Nov 2021 IDC stage one and DCIS stage 2 (hr+ / her2-) - I had two lumpectomies / radiation - and I recently hit my two year cancer free mark πΈπΈπΈ Early diagnosis saves lives - I am a walking testament to that. Anyhoo / because of my cancer type- Iβm taking tamoxifen - so the weight is definitely a struggle after being on it for two years. I joined WW again last week - and still have a healthi membership But I thought Iβd actually give the current WW plan a try π Sadly - all the meetings oh wait - workshops π« π₯Έπ shut down in my area and the closest is over an hour away. Bummer. So Iβm only doing online - Other than that - thatβs been my last few years lol. Life is great and if cancer did anything - it was make me realize just how much more I needed to βliveβ life. So it was my blessing and I am so grateful for that. Iβm going to try and be more active and participate here on the boards - I know it will definitely benefit me.
