So, some big news...

1. My trainer has me training to race two 5ks. One in August, one in October. Has me at the highest incline possible on the treadmill. It's killing meeee. lol.

2. I am taking my personal trainer certification exam in December! Studying October and November and taking the exam after my cosmetic surgery.

3. My long-term goal for Summer 2020 is to become a volunteer firefighter. I am getting a tour next week to do auxiliary work in the meantime which is just supportive (like helping the firefighters cool off and getting stuff they need, etc).

Holy shiiiiiiit. Never in my wildest imagination....

That's great! I was a volunteer firefighter in my twenties until I relocated for my job. You're going to love it and the camaraderie that comes with it. I gotta give it to you on the running.....you're brave!

That's wonderful! My former husband (now deceased) was a volunteer firefighter for 27 years. He LOVED it. Way to go! Good for you! You've inspired me to crank the incline up on the treadmill some more.

Got measurements at the trainer today. I lost 34.5" total in the last 3 months. That's a lot! I am shocked. Yet pleased. Also 32lbs. Down to 175!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
