Two Year Anniversary

So my two year anniversary was the 14th of this month. I haven't been on the site for a while. I wanted to check in and let those thinking about WLS or recently post-op know that life is good! I have been blessed to not have had any issues other than I am hypoglycemic now. That is very easily treated by just paying attention to what I eat and I quickly learned how to recognize when my blood sugar was dropping.
I tipped the scales at 365 at my heaviest. I dropped to 220 at my lowest weight. I was stable at around 230 until the holidays, when I will admit my exercise level was way low while my food intake went up. I am back on my program now and feeling great as I drop those extra holiday pounds. Last summer I ran a 10k, finishing in just over an hour. I am now training for a 1/2 marathon set for June and will do several 5 and 10k's along the way.
This has been one of the best decisions I ever made and I wouldn't change one bit of the experience.
If you are in process and have questions please feel free to contact me. My door is always open.
Good luck to all!

 Congratulations and thank you for posting.  I'm sure that there are several men who would be interested in how to start train for any distance run.  bob

I have used a website called HalHigdon.com He is a long time runner and has lots of free training programs for beginner and experienced runners. He has run/walk programs all the way to ultra-marathon training programs. Anyone out there looking for specific tips, please feel free to contact me.
