I'm SO EXCITED!!!

Only 9 lbs from my goal of 150.

Went to my surgeon for my 8 month check up and I am down another 16# of fat!!!

I am finally in the 150's (159) when this pic was taken last Friday night. The "before" was taken at a Denver Bronco's game last October pre-surgery with my husband.

I have started running and am training to do a 5K in the spring...WHAT a difference a year can make! This time last year I was 303 lbs and my marriage was in a pretty dismal place...now we are both working out and eating right and of one mind. We are really happy and life is great!

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Phil: 4:13

Thanks so much!

I can't tell you all how much this "tool" has changed my life. I'm going to be 50 next year and I'm in a better place health and energy wise than I was in my 20's. It's amazing how much life has to offer when you finally feel you are LIVING and not just existing. Well wishes to all & thanks!
