Re: a six eight/mammogram

One of the great things about losing a lot of weight is you can just

flop those babies right on the x-ray table, squish 'em as hard as you

want and it doesn't hurt!

Went for my mammogram yesterday. Don't forget to tell them you have

lost weight recently. The tech said it makes a big difference in the

tissue and the way the x-rays read, so the doc needs to be aware.

Thankd for the tip, Vicki! I'll be sure and tell them. It is

especially important because I have to go to a new place this time.
