I've actually lost about 3 lbs from my low fat diet.

After a couple more jolts of ouch, I decided that I'd stick with the diet. (Major drumroll here) I've actually stopped drinking all soda. I've been drinking very weak green tea, water and juice.
I went for my mammogram on Friday, and it was not as bad as I feared. They didn't squish me to pancake proportions, and so it didn't even really hurt.

I guess they've updated their protocols.
Now I'm just waiting for EC Support Group meeting on Wed, and Kelly consult on Friday. . .
