As an alternative my previous post, I feel fantastic.

I'm 2.5 months post RNY and will hit onederland in the next week if I don't stall. The last time I was in onderland was before I knew it was called onderland.

I have soooo much energy. I walk with my head up. This past week when walking around the corner to my spinning class - I ran half way just because I felt like it.

Today I started a couch to 5K program and was able to run through all 8 of the 90 second runs at a decent pace. And when I was done I threw my arms up and walked a few steps of the cool down like a champion.

Yesterday my neighbour said I looked good and I replied 'yes I do!' I am super confident - basically too sexy for everything at 203 lbs, Its the most awesome feeling.

Last week I took the bus home from work and sat between two people and none of me touched either of them. I didn't squeeze myself in, no dirty looks - they completely ignored me as I texted gleefully of the event to my SOs.

For the last month, sitting shot gun in the car has been really weird. I've been asking my spouse why she moved the seat so far back and down. I realize last week no one moved the seat, its just that my tummy is a lot farther back from the dash than it used to be and I'm no longer sitting on top of several inches of butt fat.

I realize, this is the invincible stage - what a great stage!

I'm so grateful to TWH/OHIP and my support system and mostly for the courage to make it happen for myself.

Happy Thanksgiving Holiday everyone!
