I am sorry.. I am just so excited that I have to tell everyone!!!

NSV First:

1st - This weekend - I did my first 5k post-op race and I had three goals. 1 - Not be last (I have always been last in every 5k that I have done), 2 - Complete in under an house, 3 - Get a medal (First 314 complete got a medal)

Well - I was 8th from last, I was 2nd to last in my age group so I did not finish last! :),  I completed the 3.14 in 57 minutes and 36 seconds, UNDER an hour.  Finally,  I was number 366 to cross the finish line, but my husband gave me his medal! :)

Scale Victory:  I Am Officially in the 200's,  I weight in this morning at 299.3! YEY!  No more seeing that stupid 3 in front of my number!

Outstanding!!!!!!

Great Job!

The fact that you even ran a 5k at 300 lbs is frankly OUTSTANDING!  I am so beyond impressed!  I just did my first 5k last weekend at 157 lbs.  I would never have had the balls or gumption to do it at 300.  You are awesome.  Keep going :)

Your NSV and SVs are wonderful.  More to come for you!

Way to go keep up the great work 

This is wonderful!

:)  I love your post!  Very inspiring!  I bet you felt so free running!

And look how you have moved up in your field.

You met all your goals!

What an amazing amount of motivation you have. No wonder you met all your goals! Congratulations!!

Congrats, what an accomplishment. I am truely inspired. I have wanted to do a 5K for years but havent been brave enough. Maybe now I will set goals like yours and just try one. Thanks for inspiring me.

I run and walk it.  I use run double app for my phone.  It doesnt seem like much but I can now run in 3 minute spurts.  My husband is the runner and has helped me so much.  when he finished with a 38 minute ime he actually found me and did the last 1/2 mile with me.
