7 Months Out! With updated pics
Today marks 7 months since my surgery. I am so pleased with my progress to date - 132 pounds lost, and so many NSV's that I have lost count! I finished a 5K race a couple of weeks back, and am now working towards an 8K race in July. I never thought I would enjoy running! I also love that I have so much more energy now - I wake up feeling refreshed, and am much better at keeping up with my active 6 and 3 year old kids.
Here are some updated before/during pics (not quite at the "after" stage). There isn't as dramatic of a change from the last time I took photos, but I still thought I'd share as I loved looking at pics when I was pre-op!
Thanks to everyone here for your support during this journey - this site has been one of the main keys to my success to date!
