Since April 2004...even more!

May 17, 2012

I have:

-Been to New Orleans and partied on Bourbon St.
-Gone to the Bahamas and worn a two-piece bathing suit
-Seen my brother and sister-in-law get married while wearing a bridesmaid dress that had to be taken in *twice* after I started running and getting healthier all around.
-Got engaged, found the perfect wedding dress, and am marrying my best friend this summer (incidentally, he was the first friend I ever told about my RNY and the first one to check up on me when I came home from the hospital).
-Skydived from 13,500 ft. above Orange, VA.
-Run a 5k for AIDS research.
-Started weightlifting and can currently deadlift 88% of my body weight! Working toward more each day. Edit 7/18/2012: I did it! I can now lift over 100% of me!
-Graduated from San Jose State University with a Masters in Library and Information Science.
-Learned that being a healthier person is a lifelong journey. I won't ever be a perfect gastric bypass post-op, but I'll always try to be the best one I can be!
