Hi all! I have been a part of MFP for 2 weeks and really enjoy reading the encouraging words from everyone. I am 10 months out from gastric sleeve surgery and have really been working hard to use my tool the way it was intended. I work out at the gym 3 days a week, take 2 boxing classes, and just started a circuit training class. I sometimes feel like people think that because I had wls that I took the easy way out. I have never worked so hard to change my life! I have lost 135 lbs and am just looking for encouragement / accountability. I have recently signed up for my first race. It is a 15k. It isn't until December so I am wanting help with how to train. I hope to connect with people who want to encourage but keep me accountable. Thank you for reading my story.
