Re: Introduction

Welcome Tanya. It is so good to have you among us to answer our many questions. I'm sure you will be bombarded.

I am a 4 year survivor and have changed my diet somewhat and added some supplements. I TRY to eat way less sugar than I did before breast cancer but don't always succeed in that department. I do however, eat very healthy foods as a rule - fruits, veggies, whole grains, nuts, berries. I just wish I could eliminate the "crap" for always. Oh well, it's a goal I constantly strive for and have improved greatly. Also, I am an avid exerciser and I was that before breast cancer as well. So, I guess, it's always a "work in progress" as they say. When you learn better you can do better. So, try I will.

Again, welcome.

Mary Jo
