DAY 44 - GOOD NEWS!!!

Today was pretty awesome - Got a lot done at work and completed a doctor's appointment that I had been really dreading with the dermatologist. About 5 years ago I went to the dermatologist and they cut into my shoulder removing a "pre" melanoma. I was supposed to return for a full body check up and never went back. It was a pretty foolish thing to do (I realize)...but at the time I just thought, "I'm not going back to get hacked on any more!"

 Well over the last year I've had a few places that got my attention and my husband (who also had some questionable spots) also had some concern. So, we made an appointment and went to the Water's Edge Dermatology to meet with Dr. Spock, <-(funny right?), who gave us both a VERY thorough looking over! I'm very thankful to say that I had NO skin cancers or "pre" cancers and Larry Wayne only had 5 pre-cancers that had to be frozen off - but nothing bad. I was also able to have a biopsy done on another body area that I had previously thought would not be tested until February, in order to rule out Pagets Disease. I feel very confident that I don't have that - but am thankful that the testing can be done now and will have results in two weeks! HOWEVER - because of the biopsy I had two stitches put in and can't do any exercise for the next 24 hours, so I'm sitting at home doing this blog instead! haha!

I don't know if I've mentioned it on here already...but I LOVE Pinterest! If anyone reading this is on Pinterest, you can find me on TWO different accounts: Fit-n-Fabulous By Fifty <-(that was probably pretty obvious - huh?) and the other is: Rebecca Balko. If you have never checked out this website - YOU SHOULD! It is WONDERFUL! My husband is JUST NOW starting to see what it is because he thought it was for "girls"...but now is finding out that quite literally ANYTHING you have an interest in...you CAN FIND on Pinterest! 
On both of my pages I have MANY boards on Fitness, Health and TONS of recipes! On my personal page there is a variety of other boards ranging from Fashion to Auburn Football to Interiors and Dream Homes to a board for Preppers!

I'm really excited for this weekend - as it is the start of incorporating the Food Lover's Weight Loss System I mentioned in my last post! It is also going to be the beginning of adding additional exercise to my weekly routine in addition to cycling! 

I have one other bit of good news. So I mentioned a last week that after my parents visit I found that I'd put weight back on. I'm happy to say I'm headed back down again. It never ceases to amaze me how EASY it is to gain and what an EFFORT it is to lose! haha! One other thing I thought I'd include tonight is a really awesome exercise plan for total body fitness I found on Pinterest (of course!) that I have decided to begin doing for the next 30 days. I am also including the link ( http://m.wikihow.com/Get-a-Flat-Stomach-in-a-Week ) that provides a LOT of other awesome information! 

OH! One last thing...TWO MORE DAYS TO AUBURN FOOTBALL! WAR DAMN EAGLE!!!!
