Default Really cool Thing Today

So before surgery a goal of mine was to be able to run a mile straight without having to stop and walk. Well I made that happen over the weekend. But today when I was at the gym I ran 2 miles on the treadmill and then went straight to the indoor track and ran another mile. I was very Happy and very surprised. I am loving working out now.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Before surgery, If I was running you should have looked for a large angry dog behind me! LOL!!! It still surprises me when I run and then realize I can, #1, and then that I can keep going if I want to! Congrats on your successes!

Scott.. that is FANTASTIC!!!! I can't wait until I can enjoy working out. I know the day will come.. I've lost a lot of weight before by working out and I know it can become a high. Last time I lost a lot of weight I ran a 5K for breast cancer research and LOVED It. I want to do that again.

BTW.... great meeting you the other night at the support group... hope to see you again... although I kinda thought the meeting itself was a bust.. especially for having driven all the way in the "blizzard". By the time I got to the Avon exit, I could barely see the road and almost went off the road trying to get on the exit. YIKES!!!!
