Good luck, Claire! Wishing you a safe and successful surgery and a quick and easy recovery.

Wednesday is your day! Just remember you are on the journey of a lifetime. Try to enjoy every minute. It may sound weird now, but know that you are cared for and prayed for here, and all too soon this will be but a memory and you will be an inspiration to someone else. I am waiting for you on the losers' bench!

Soon this WLS will be done and over with, and you will realize that you have taken a big step to health. The 24th is almost here..so know we all will be thinking about you! My best regards to you, Vicki

10 Months
on August 25, 2008 5:50 pm

I missed my 10 month update by a day...didn't even dawn on me. I'm 146 or 147 depending...so 4 or 5 pounds this month. I'm 6 pounds from goal at 10 months out. I really don't want to get under 140...I'm very comfortable at this weight. I guess we'll see where I end up.

I'm still running. Four days a week and logging over 20 miles a week. I just bought the most incredible pair of running shoes that are like running on air....ahhhhhhhh.

I'm leaving for Vegas in a little over a week. I need to get the fuck outta dodge. I feel like I'm running on empty. Rahhhhh

9 Months and counting
on July 26, 2008 5:56 am

I weigh 150lbs...I have offically lost 100lbs since this journey started...95lbs since surgery. Amazing...I just may hit goal which is about 10 pounds away. 5 or 6lbs this month...I think 6.

I have energy to spare and blisters from running on my feet. I wear anywhere from a 10 down to an 8 in clothing depending on the size. A man at the clinic last week called me petite....I looked around not thinking he could possibly be refering to me but since it was only the two of us in the room it had to have been..LOL. I'll never be petite...I will always be built like a little brick shithouse but damn if I'm not defined and strong. My body has held up extremely well considering the abuse I've put it through for so many years. I have very little loose skin and what there is I'm betting will tighten up as it gets used to this smaller frame.

I have a wedding the begining of September and I picked up the dress this week. What a thrill not to worry about it fitting. Although I do have to get about two feet wacked off the bottom and the halter straps adjusted...but other than that it fits like a glove..and very sexy. My mother said I looked elegant...as if.

That's it for now....9 months down..a lifetime to go.

8 Months a bit late
on June 29, 2008 6:41 am

And up and down all month long with a total of 0 pounds lost at the end. I've lost 89 pounds total and either I'm seriously stalled or this is the end. I know I always say that...but then I always loose something at the end of the month and I didn't this month. It's alright really....I'm happy with my weight at 156....I wear a size 8 clothes and my body fat is 'almost' normal. I know the body fat part will continue to decrease even if my weightloss is done.

I'm preparing for a 10K this fall...and yesterday I ran 5.5 miles which is almost a 10K. I'm sure I'll be ready come
Sept. or Oct.
Vincent ran his first 5K without me up at his dads this weekend. Little stinker clocked a 25:45!! He had to be just hauling! I'm so proud of him and I totally wish I could have seen him do it. Dominic is doing awesome at running and is increasing his distance bit by bit. I told him I'd enter him in a 5K in the fall if he was ready and I'm sure he will be.

In cancer/Mom news she's done with radiation and we're having a party for her today. She's feeling great....went through her six weeks like a champ...going and working out every day after the zapped her ass...I never thought she was were my endurance came from...but I'm thinking it may be.

3rd 5K
on June 16, 2008 6:18 am

Was awesome! It took some doing to get there...with all the flooding in Wisconsin right now and the main highway being shut down...it took hours!!!! We didn't end up getting into the dells till after midnight Friday night. But I got up at 6 and went to the race. It was a beautiful course at some golf resort. I felt good and ready for a change. I did my first mile in 9.4 which was a little faster than I wanted but was ok with. I ended up finishing in 29:05 which is like a minute and a half better than last time. I was 96th out of like 240 people so I finished in the top half. Skip took some pictures so I might even get those up on here sometime before next year. It was a very good day.

Vincent is running his first race without me at the end of this month. He's shooting for 27 minutes...ambitious little shit..that's my boy. He'll probably do it to. I only wish I could be there to watch him...but his dad is taking him...so that'll have to be enough.

I'm starting Dominic running tomorrow. He's not too thrilled but I think he'll catch the bug. He needs it...he has obese genes all over his family and at 10 he's 5 feet 1 inch tall and easily 120lbs so I need to start him moving more. I need to clock out a mile around the neighborhood and get him going.

And down a pound.

I have another 5K this weekend...hoping for decent weather which is becoming unusual around here. I ran in the rain yesterday...first time so I'm ready in case I have to do it this weekend.

Blah...I need to get away.
