      You will walk away from the race with a medal around your neck and we'll all say "We knew her when..."

  3. My BMI has went from 52 to 33. Still considered Obese.. but MAN! 3 more points to just being overweight!

      so I don't know if my BMI will ever be "normal". BMI is a quick screening tool, but far from perfect. https://www.sciencebasedmedicine.org/does-weight-matter/

      Oh, I know.. I'm not worried about it.

      Doesn't it feel good to be so close to just overweight? I'm there too and can't wait to be out of the obese range.

  4. Had a 100 mile run goal for December.. I have 3 days left and I'm only at 52 miles for the month, however, I am STOKED and AMAZED that I ran that much. I don't think I ever ran more than a mile in a month in the past!

      You are amazing. I have a way to go to catch up to you. I did a 4 mile in 60 min - that is my best so far.

      But like you, I can't believe how far I've come!!!!!

      @LisaLouBop I'm so proud if you! I started at about 3.5 jogging mph.. Improvement is the key!

  13. Its so weird to put on clothes that I used to wear that were SO tight.. and now.. they are way too big..

      MrsSugarbabe

      Congratulations, Chrystee!!

      It is very exciting to start fitting into smaller clothes!! And as @LisaLouBop said - even when the scale doesn't budge (mine's been stuck, too), the clothes still get bigger because the inches keep coming off.

    3. Djmohr

      Djmohr

      Yeah! My favorite thing to do is put on both the clothes I was wearing before surgery and clothes that I have purchased that are one size smaller than I am currently wearing.it is so motivating!!!

    4. Laydee_G

      Laydee_G

      Love that feeling! Keep going Chrystee, we're all in it together x
