Guest guest Posted May 3, 2006 Report Posted May 3, 2006 I need to lose about 15 more pounds after 2 years on Arimidex and I am walking every day plus not eating junk- my face is still way too full ! The arimidex just seems to add weight...I was fine after chemo! Last night I was telling my husband about how the arimidex triggers hot flashes especially with this hotter weather- or like when I am over the stove cooking something- and his remark was.... "Well, when you are HEAVY it is harder for your body to cool itself" SLAP I have been on TV several times lately and when I see myself I am like WHO IS THAT TOAD? God forbid, it is ME...I hope my old boyfriends aren't watching LOL Just keep working at it...the right food, more activity...drink more water... to stay healthy and keep my heart fit! Off to walk before work now... and try to heal my injured ego... Andree Quote
Guest guest Posted May 4, 2006 Report Posted May 4, 2006 Dear Andree, I truly believe we are "better" than we were before. We have beautiful facial lines we've never had before (stress, worry, test results), as well as courage lines, friendship lines, and yes, the inevitable KID lines (DH's too!) You say "toad," - we see princess. You're too hard on yourself! You are a beautiful person inside, which resonates to your outer appearance. I see a truly beautiful soul who is doing everything she can to remain healthy! We'll never be 18, 28, even 38 again...but think of where we've been and how far we can go! You GO Girl! XOXOX Quote
