Been living life. 7 months out and I miss you all!!!
Hi everyone!! So I am 7 months out and down 97 pounds! the last 3 are hanging on for dear life to me!! lol. Anyway I have been learning to love life again. We have a mountain by my house that is popular for hiking and I have taken to that. It is a 6 mile hike round trip with a mile of it being up on a 30% incline. Last Saturday I actually ran the mile back down! I just started running and it felt so good I kept going!
Surgery is the best thing I could have EVER done! I feel alive and I am enjoying life. New years day I took my kids to the park and just for fun we climbed up a hill and rolled down it together. a year ago I would have never have done it.
I live in a small town with no support groups. I would drive 3 hours once a month to my Dr appointment then go to the meeting in San Diego. I hosted a support group meeting for the first time last night here in my town. I will still go to San Diego once a month for the meeting there but now i can give back. .
That is A W E S O M E!!
There is a phone support group that meets at 7:30p ET every Monday and it is small and intimate and awesome! If you are interested in more information on that, PM me.
