I'm another one of the huge fans of the PROMISE series by McCarty. You have such a treat with those books. The Elizabeth Hoyt books too, but MACKENZIE'S MOUNTAIN? Holy crap that's a good book.
I'm with Lori...woo-freakin'-hoo on the smaller clothes shopping. You sure deserve the splurge after all your hard work and dedication working out and losing weight.
As for the rest of your health issues, just take care of yourself. Okay?
Phew, glad to hear the spot was a cyst. Would cortizone shots help with the pain for the bulge? I'm all for keeping pain at bay! And I completely get evening yourself out. I'm always vigilant in that department. On that note, I need to set up my SAD light.
I'm on Effexor (I believe it's an anti-depressant that also helps curb my panic attacks. I can still get them but I have to really work myself up. Happens but usually I can stop it before it gets too far with 'coping' mechanisms.
*sigh* I don't even worry about my clothing size anymore. Whatever fits is what gets worn and lately I have been getting compliments on my clothing because I'm dressing up despite my weight. I know when I'm ready I'll deal with it but there is just one too many things to deal with right now.
So super congratulations on the weight loss because that is A LOT of hard, determined work. Yay, you!!

Lori ~ I don't mind shopping as much as I used to, that's for sure. But, I don't want to go on a "real" shopping trip until I'm at my goal weight. I'll have to get through the rest of the of the stories in the Promise series, but am looking forward to Clint and Jenna's story.
Rosie ~ I'm really looking forward to some vacation time so I can get some reading done. I've got lots of good books that are just waiting to be read.
Jodi ~ I used to absolutely hate shopping. I hated trying on clothes and would just grab and go. It's gotten better. I've learned what clothes flatter my body type so it's not nearly that bad experience it used to be.
Cindy ~ Cortizone shots are an option, but Dr. B wants me to try physical therapy first. I had cortizone shots in my foot last year ~ hurt like hell and only alleviated the pain for a short amount of time. So, I'm debating.
Stacy ~ True, books are an addiction I can live with. Just wish I had the time to tackle the TBR pile. :-)
Izzy ~ Thanks!
Crystal ~ This is my second McCarty and I have to say she's pretty awesome. I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the Promises series.
Nath ~ Me too. Now if I could just get rid of the rest of this weight. That'll be the next thing I tackle.
((Hugs)) I'll keep my fingers crossed for you on the health front. On the clothes front - woohoo! I'm one who actually loves shopping for smaller clothes. Congrats!
As for the books... I'm glad you're liking the Promises bookks. The last one is the best, IMO. Lots of controversy though, over which is the best - everyone seems to have their favorite :)
Loved The Raven Prince, too! And the other two in that series. And I love Linda Lael Miller, too. You have such a great lineup going. I'm jealous! And the Howard and Callens you just picked up are great as well. And who doesn't love Janet Dailey? As I said - way jealous of your reading over the next couple months. Enjoy!!
