Happy Friday (yes, I know this picture is from Monday but let’s be real I could never make myself look this good ‍♀️) This time 5 weeks ago I was in the operating room undergoing my Mastectomy with reconstruction. I can’t believe it’s been 5 weeks! Time seriously flew. Last week I was dealing with major depression, but I never chalked it up to being PMS. I was SO mad at my body when I got my period for the second time since being home from the hospital. I then turned my thinking to a positive - my body is properly functioning and even though my post Mastectomy periods are way more severe I am THANKFUL for my body being amazing On Tuesday I saw my GYN who referred me to my amazing breast surgeon - since my cancer diagnosis and history of cysts/lesions on my ovaries tests were ordered and even if anything small is seen, in the least exploratory surgery will be ordered This week I took a turn in my recovery - I’m bursting with energy now and feel like I’m ready to take on anything! I’ve also been challenging my agoraphobia and anxiety on a daily basis - not only have I been driving and going to appointments alone but I’m driving and exposing myself to going to stores alone! Also, I haven’t worked out in 5 weeks and I don’t feel bad about it one bit. I’ve accepted my body, I love my body for all it does for me.
