Before & After

I'm just 3 weeks shy of my surgiversary. My weight has been fluctuating by about 4-5 lbs for the last 2 months. I've lost roughly 108 lbs from my high weight and about 96 lbs from my surgery day. I'm going to run a half marathon on Sat and the distance running has me eating more carbs than I normally would (hence the fluctuations). I feel amazing.

Hubby is about 6 weeks behind me. Not sure how much he's down, but it's well over 125 lbs.

What's interesting is that's a size 12 dress! Not tiny by any stretch' date=' but I feel awesome and would be content to remain at this size. In fact I'm nervous about losing more once I reduce my mileage and consequently my carbs. They have been dangerous for me bc I crave them again and I'm afraid of falling back into old habits.[/quote']

That's a 12?? I guess that would be just fine for me! I looked at an 8 in the store, and it seemed impossible. I hear you on the carbs. If I get to running marathons like you maybe I won't worry about them AS much but today, I have a healthy fear of them. :)

Congrats! You both look fabulous and happy!
