well I made the jump

I am almost down 70 lbs from the last year.  I went to Targets the other day and about had a break down, cause for the first time since like Jr. High, I was able to get into, button and zip these shorts.  I was also able to get into a jr. size shirt.  I signed up for my first half marathon being held in Milwaukee as I have 2 photoshoots while I am there to do as well.  Figure why not race in a different state.  Stuff is finally coming together. Pic from last year to this years color run. 

6 months

So I had a lateral release done on Jan. 5th on the same knee I had previous surgery on... Had some complications due to swelling for a few months, now it only swells if I am on it a long time, or just a lot of use.  I have started back with running, and working out.  In fact, only 47 lbs away from the weight I want to be for competition.  I am on this working out almost every day, switching up workouts including boot camp like exercises as well as bicycling.  I am back to training for a 1/2 marathon in Sept. The one I couldn't run last year due to surgery.  It seems like forever since I have felt this ok working out with all the knee issues.

Here is a recent pic.
