I have noticed that my abs are soooo tight from running. I guess that arm swinging motion whittles the waist. It's like I do a ton of sit ups but I don't do any. LOL. Running for the win!!!

So I was informed today during the interview that over 250 applied and they only interviewed 25 for 6 positions. So if I get one, I will be ecstatic. It was honestly a privilege to even get interviewed. So fingers crossed!!

I say 60 is the new 40 (as this number is coming my way in another month and a half). You are so right Lori! We are throwing away 20 years of ugh and getting 20 years of ooh la la!!! You'll be rocking that milestone looking better than ever!!!

But after WLS patients get to create a whole different and much better life. This surgery changes their lives completely and for the better." He almost cried. No shit. And I definitely cried. OMG!! What an amazing man!! I love that!!! It is absolutely true. We get a better life!
