Great job!

I had surgery on Nov. 30 and have registered for the runDisney 10k at Disneyland on September 2. If that goes well, I may have to consider registering for the Star Wars Half Marathon.

Congratulations!!!

So can you tell us how and when you started exercising to get to this point?

My surgery was on March 11, 2015. I started "exercising" aka walking 3 days after surgery. I joined a local 24hr Fitness and went every night and started walking on a treadmill sometimes only 10/15 mins. I just kept doing it. I set a goal to do a 5K and chose the Disney Avengers 5K in November.

Originally my goal was just to finish and maintain the 16 min per mile "required" pace. However by race day I was maintaining a 14 min pace.

Awesome! I did the DL 10K this past September. It was a lot of fun. The 10K courses are a lot better now and you will be in the park 75% of the race.

@@OneDollarBill I'm really looking forward to it. I was gonna do the Super Heroes Half Marathon/Thor 10K, but since I'm a DC Comics guy I figured I couldn't betray myself. :-)

I'm signed myself up for the Infinity Guantlet. That should be an interesting challenge

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
