Yes, I had weight loss surgery. No, I did not take the easy way out. You may have a different opinion (and you are entitled to your own) but WLS is not easy. Yes, I have lost almost 95 lbs in 7 months. The weight has come off faster than I ever imagined, but it has not been easy.
Now onto bigger and better things! In December, 6 months after having RNY Gastric bypass I signed up for my first Half Ironman. Augusta 70.3 here I come. As of today I have 223 days and I am in no way ready. I have a lot of endurance to gain. I also have to figure out how to fuel over a 7 hour race given my current nutritional needs. It seems daunting but I decided to keep a record of it here in order to hold myself accountable and hopeful survive this endeavor.
As I figure this blog thing out I will add pictures!
