Getting stronger and I am down three more pounds. YAY. Still dreaming of the day I can turn around and not see flatness staring back in the mirror, lol. I do a lot of squats and deadlifts, etc. And I can completely see a change in the shape of my behind BUT (and not a big BUTT which is the problem) there is a flatness in the middle I will never be able to plump up. I need that area to be filled and rounded.

Anyway, how are you lovely ladies? I miss you guys.

The results are in...

Unfortunately despite taking a ridiculously high dosage of the medicine that I am on, the tumor is larger now :( Which means that I have to make the choice between the surgery and radiation (my mind is made up, so really there isn't a choice). So that is what I will be doing in December instead of recovering from a BBL. Oddly enough I still haven't heard from the docs office about the pics I sent in a couple of weeks ago. It doesn't matter now, but still...

I will still prep for the BBL (weight loss, vitamins, etc) but I will have to put it off for another year December 2015. Such is life

Sooooo

I am still waiting to hear back from Dr C's office. However...

I went to my neuro-endocrinologist's office today. Long story short, there is a strong possibility that I may have to have radiation treatments soon for my tumor. It is either that or surgery (which would involve cutting open my head, lifting my brain (shutter) and removing part of the pituitary tumor - they can't get all of it because of the size and proximity to my optic nerve AND it would possibly grow back). I have an MRI scheduled for next week.

On one hand I didn't want this because I am set on getting the BBL this winter. On the other hand, I would like to handle this tumor business once and for all. Health first. But there are no guarantees. :| We shall see. Until then I am going forward with my plans for December (including losing weight, putting down a deposit, etc) knowing there is a possibility I may have to postpone it.
