Ran 5 miles



Recommended Posts

If some one would have told me your going to run 5 miles...I would have laughed in your face. I amazed myself the other day. My endurance is through the roof! I ran the 5k in November, and my goal is to do the half marathon!!!

Exhilarating....isn't it?

Not to mention the unbelievable things it does for your body...

I have not lost or gained any weight for over a year, having been at my goal and completing this process...but since I have started to run in earnest...I have continued dropping clothing sizes.....body tone and shape always changing.....

great job! I did my first 5k at the end of last year. Walked most of it, but still it was awesome to complete it. I've been using an Ease into 5K and am on Week 5. Staring to plan my runs for this year.

Congratulations! I am on board with you- I run all the time and I still can hardly believe it. I can run a 5k, on the phone and be home in 33 min. :) I ran just over 30 for my last competitive 5k My knees cant take more than 5 or 6 miles but I am so happy to be able to run and i do it all the time. I am so happy for everyone here who shares this joy. isnt it great to have hard legs and rear? To not get winded when we run at airports or for other reasons? I am so happy to read these posts and to hear about your success

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
