Weight Gain

Wasn't feeling too chipper over the weekend and the Monday Blahs are hitting hard today. Supposed to be working, but my mind is saying "Nope. Don't want to." So I surfed around and randomly typed in searches and came across a web page that hit home.
Julia Grim is a very brave woman who had breast cancer and underwent a total mastectomy and documented it(maybe some of you are very familiar with this site, but I hadn't heard of it). On this particular page she portrays a harsh, but a humorous look at the weight gain she has experienced from her treatments and other health issues.
*Warning - There are a few F-bombs and the pictures may be too graphic for those who are squeamish, but I could really relate to what she is saying.
I hope this will help someone else know that they are not alone and the weight gain isn't as bad as we think (and feel) it is.
