Still the best decision I ever made!

A year ago today I was 310lbs and starting my pre-op diet. This weekend I’m running my first half marathon and I’m registered for the Chicago Marathon this Fall.

It flies by so fast so be sure to enjoy the journey, don’t sweat the human scale (DO sweat the food scale lol), and for the love of all that is holy TAKE ALL THE PICS.

P.S. If any VSG pals want to get into running but aren’t sure where to start, I’m happy to help! There aren’t many resources out there for bariatric distance runners and I know how scary it can be to get started :)
