"I feel like "Believe it or not , IT IS ME!

Attachment 21299
Seven months ago I hated having my picture taking .Now I want them to track my progress..
But there is a story associated with this picture.
We were inside and I asked my husband to go outside to take a picture of me . He took a few. As he was snapping it , he saw a lady fall on the sidewalk above our yard.
Now I have not ran it many years and even though I get up daily and am trying to get up my speed to do a 5k ,I still feel I am to slow.. Without thinking I RAN down the side walk and up the steps to her . My husband was yelling at me not to run! Yes , yelling at me not to run!
On the positive side the 75 year old lady was banged up but not badly hurt. Seven months ago I would never have been able to move that fast to help her !

Congrats on your success thus far and we usually never know what we can do until we do it :) God bless you and I am glad the lady is okay.I wish you the best :)

You look great! Good to hear no one was badly hurt. Aquajog to the resue!

Right ... Aquajog to the rescue. :)

And looking SO cute!

You look MARVELOUS!

Aqua, you are such a cutie! You're doing so great!

You look great! I am so glad that the lady was okay too.

Did you put your 'Wonder Woman' outfit on first?? ;) Seriously, what a great NSV! Congratulations! :)

Yes it was a NSV..
The person that has been working with me for the 5K at Disney suggested that we do another timed race before . She kept saying that I will move faster when the all the excitement from the race is happening . She wanted to see me "move under pressure".
Well, I texted her after everything was over . Told her I actually "RAN"!
It is something I have been trying so hard to do !

Hi Roz:

How beautiful the picture is of you - your husband must be so proud of your success. I still am blown away at how much you are accomplishing by running the Disney 5K. How grateful the lady must have been to have you close by.

I understand your husband's reaction. I am still at the point of being afraid to run. (But I still weigh in the high 200's). I want to run - feel it inside - but even walking really fast I feel a bit unsteady. However, the pool is really helping. It is just about 3 weeks that we have been swimming and we are loving it. I am swimming a mile most days, though some days still just do a half mile.

I can already tell a difference in the "bat wings" under my arms - they are firming up again. I also was laughing earlier today. I am wearing a size 3 pants today and should have on the 2's which are also a bit big. But I went to get off the couch and my hand caught the material at my butt, and I realized that my but was getting smaller as well - or firming up. There is a lot of extra material hanging down. Robert also told me when I was exercising earlier that he can see my legs getting smaller as well. Little by little.

You are special - wish you lived closer - we would probably become good friends.

Hugs,

Kathy:)

Just want to share . Mrs.Campbell was admitted to the hospital . She did break her nose which I was almost sure of. Her husband thought she would be discharged this evening but doctor wants to keep her another day .

Great job!

I think Aquajog is the newest "Greatest American Hero" (I think you used the song from the TV show).

What a great story Aquajog. You are doing so well on your "journey"!! You never know what you will be able to do in the future. God bless and can't wait to see the next updated pic!

LOL ,,no hero.. Just happened to be the first people to see and hear her .. But so surprised at how fast I moved .. Before surgery would never have moved like that. I would have been short of breath before getting to her .. And if I got down to the ground to help had . Heaven know how I would have managed to get up!
