See Rob. See Rob run. Run, Rob, run!

For the first time, I believe since college, I really ran. Don't get me wrong, I didn't experience a Forrest Gump moment. But I did run for a short period of time as part of my exercise this morning. It was actually easier than I expected; it still took a fair amount of exertion on my part, but I was surprised and excited by this little accomplishment.

4 Months Post Surgery

Surgery +4 Months

Today marks four months since my surgery.

Since I started this process, I have lost over 87 pounds. I now weigh 242.9 pounds.

This last month has been harder in many ways, including the rate of weight-loss. I only lost 7 pounds in the last month and almost all of it has been in the last week. However, as you can see from my last weigh-in, my body has continued to change.

So for today, I am choosing to focus on where I am today in contrast to where I was 4-and-a-half months ago.
