I am 5' 4. I suffer from dumping syndrome so sugar is not part of my diet what so ever!! Otherwise I eat pretty much what I want, but crave veggies, fruits and Protein and will still have carbs since I run. I finally am not constrained by a certain food/diet.....I'M FREE!!!!

1 year anniversary tomorrow....60 lbs gone forever!

Oh that gives me such hope. I wish for a 41st birthday that is just as wonderful! Congratulations on your new body and new life.

1 year anniversary tomorrow....60 lbs gone forever!

Tomorrow is my one year anniversary.....August 2, 2012.....my 40th birthday! I am so happy to say that 365 days later I am maintaining my weight loss of 60 lbs, which I lost after 6 months. I am a size 4/6 and run about 40 miles a week and am planning a 15 mile run tomorrow for my 41st bday and my one year anniversary. This was the best decision I could have ever made. Dr. Garcia is wonderful and I would do the surgery again in a heartbeat if I needed to. For those questioning the surgery, the location or the doctor know that you are making the right decision! To think last year at this time my husband and I were sitting in the Marriott Tijuana waiting for the big day!

Before 201 / After 166 (currently 159)

A while back I posted about 5-hour energy and Gels....well, I'm here to report that I am now up to 9 miles and using 2 gels during my long runs. The gel that works the best for me (since I dump) are the Cliffs brand...they are 90% organic and do not kill my stomach. So happy that these still work for me as I have a few half marathons planned and now I don't have to worry about losing fuel.

I just live my life and the pounds keep fallin off I <3 my sleeve. 4 months out today and 60 pounds gone. 230 to 170

Before 201 / After 166 (currently 159)

I actually just set my mind to run it Feb 2014...since my surgery is Jan 2013 I didn't think it was realistic to do it this year but I can't wait until 2/14!!!
