This is the journey of one mother of three wonderful kids who decided one day that she was sick of being morbidly obese weighing 324 and was determined to do something about it. I decided that I want to grow old with my husband Tony and be here for my great kids until I am old. The Lap-Band procedure was performed on 10/19/10 at a weight of 307. Join in on the journey!!

I did it!!!
So today is a special two for one day! I posted earlier and spoke about how I just was not motivated and how I needed to get some "sun" in my life and get out of this rut. Well as I typed that post I kept thinking how when I go to work out how I feel so much better. So on my way to the gym I decided I was going to really push myself today and so something I had never done....I was going to do a 5K on the treadmill. So 3.11 miles. My goal was to do it in less than an hour and to still be alive afterwards. Well I dug deep a couple of times and I pushed myself more today than I ever have. I averaged about a 15.32 mile I think with a total time of 49.22 so less than an hour with time to spare. I even answered an important call during this fast paced walk. I have not gotten comfortable jogging on the treadmill so it is a speed walk! I am SOOOOO PROUD of myself! This was something that I can write down as one of my milestones. I am even more confident in doing a 5K walk in July. Just wanted to share this exciting event with you! Who would have thought 7 months ago I would have done a 5K on the treadmill and still be alive to tell about it! If I can do it so can you!!!
