Amazing! I do not run, or plan on it, but am amazed by those who do. Did you ever think when you were living that before pic- Ironman??? was in your future?

This weekend marks the 10 year anniversary of the day I met my younger daughter, so my pictures include her. The first was taken in China right after we signed all the official paperwork and the second is last night when we were just being silly. I am so blessed to be her mommy. She makes me laugh every single day.

QOTD: I tell everyone now if it comes up in conversation when I am talking about my surgery (which is rare now), but did not when I was losing. During my losing phase, I got tired of being the topic of conversation so I would evade and change the subject until people stopped asking.

Eating is bleh. I need to lose a few before I go to Vegas (not the same time as you JB, dang it).

8+ years since surgery, HW: 339, current weight 140. Walking steps always in. All vitamins, supplements, water are in. Today's eating goal: 1500 calories.
