Two Years Already!
Hi everyone! Saturday marked the two year anniversary of my surgery. My life is so different now. I am maintaining my 157 pound weight loss and enjoying my life. I am running my first 5k on Saturday. I never, ever thought that I would run anywhere! I am hiking challenge trails, and continue to swing dance every week. Life is so different at this weight, and I am happier than I have ever been in my life. I feel complete now, like the last piece of the puzzle has been found and placed. I am so glad that I took this monumental step and have found good health again.
Very nice, congratulations.

Congrats! That is awesome! I did a 5k and I am not sold on running, but the fact that I finished was a victory enough :) Perhaps you will love it - there seem to be many runners on here. I had surgery 3 months after you and I haven't seen you on here in a while but I definitely remember you and I am thrilled you are doing well!
I am doing well :) I have found some great workout routines that I love - mostly strength training classes. They keep me focused! I had a lower body lift and breast lift in March which was AMAZING and I am having my arms done in a month. After that, I will do my best to avoid surgeries! Maintenance is proving to be tough but I work at it everyday :) I am envious you love running!
I had a lift/augmentation in February and abdomnoplasty in June....I feel so much better since those surgeries. I plan on having my arms and legs done next year. My surgeon wants me to take a break. Maintenance is tough, but I'm hanging in there. I'm glad that you are doing so well...I love hearing from you!
