Hi Cali,
It's official. I am married. Just wanted to poke my head in real fast. I am a big time lurker on here and wanted to say hi to those *****member me.

I have been very busy lately.

In 9 days i'll be running/walking the 2009 Woman's Nike marathon in San Francisco.

I am only doing half- about 13 miles. So between planning Cancer Survivor's Day at my job, and planning my wedding I fit in training. I am very excited and know without this surgery I would have never been able to accomplish the many great things I have done.

I have gained about 13 pounds since my lowest but my body is very comfortable with where it is now. I exercise everyday and try to eat healthy all the time. I fall off track sometimes but I am only human and have learned to listen to my body more. I know if i don't focus and make good choices I will gain weight so I have to check myself often.

I love coming on here and seeing everyone's progress. (especially Monica

) I tried to get my insurance to cover an abdomanplasty but got denied twice. I wrote an appeal and lost so maybe someday I will have a flat stomach. My bat wings are still flapping and my legs jiggle but for the most part I am happy. For the first time ever i can look at myself in the mirror and think i am beautiful with my saggy skin flapping and all. My favorite thing to do is sit in the bath and mold, fold and make shapes with my excess skin... just a reminder to myself what I have gone through. I think of it as my souvenior from my surgery.

I hope everyone is doning well and I posted some wedding pics on my profile. It was a beautiful wedding and I am very blessed.

Hugs to all,
J
