One pound away!!!!!

Holy moly!!! I didn't think I'd ever be able to say this so quickly!!!! at just over 3 months out........

I am ONE pound away from my original goal of 160!!!!!

I know from looking in the mirror that I Still have a ways to go, so I've reset my ticker to lose more. But I truly thought I was dreaming to ask to hit the 160s.

My strategy was to mix things up all the time. I try to stay around 30-40 carbs each day. But I don't fret if I'm over, because there are other days I'm under. I go to the gym hardcore for a couple weeks, then go down to a few days a week to recover. I mainly just try to keep my body guessing. So far it's worked well for me. I have a 5k run in a couple weeks. Not sure if I'm going to be able to run the whole thing, but I'm certainly going to try.

For any of you out there thinking and researching this surgery.......just do it!!! It's truly one of the best things that has happened to me. And not just on the outside. I am more upbeat and confident in myself. I'm even looking at buying the bakery I work at to run it!!! Any business owners out there that can give me some advice??? : )
