So today I officially hit the 50 lbs lost since surgery mark!!! Yee-pee!!! I am down a total of 88 lbs! Holy moley.  It seems like all of the sudden everyone is noticing my weight loss! But that wasn't my WoW moment.  I went for a walk tonight and I was booking it! And then....drum roll please....I RAN!!! I ran uphill!!!! It was very exciting! I was full on running! It felt so good! My goal is to become a runner and with every pound I lose, I get closer to that goal.  Just wanted to share! Have a great week guys!

That's great! Congrats! I can't even imagine being a runner. That might be possible though if my exercised enduced asthma goes away. Hmm... odd thought... I may run someday... weird! Anyway, way to go girl! Keep it up!

Hooray!

I can run for 3 minutes straight without feeling like I'm dying now..I consider that an accomplishment :)

That's awsome!!!  I can't even imagine ever running.  AND your new picture is beautiful!  I wish i wasn't a computer idiot, maybe someday i'll figure out how to post a picture.

I ran cross country in highschool, and my goal was to start running again..but now after a plate and 6 pins in my ankle, I am thinking that I will never be able to run again....it hurts really bad after my 8 hour shift at work...ick!!

That is GREAT!! 

I was in the forest this past weekend and I climbed up a little hill looking at a tree or something and further up the hill I heard cracking branches and I FREAKED out and I ran girl, ran like sasquatch was after me down the hill and to the truck.  AND I DIDN'T DIE!!  It was the best feeling ever!!  It set me up for energy all day.  So I know how awesome your WOW was.  Keep up the awesome job and good luck on your goal of becoming a runner!!!
