Help me support Cancer Research UK

Ok, one of my goals was to walk 25miles along Hadrians wall over a weekend on the anniversay of my sleeve.  I didnt make this one, for two reasons, one our friends got married in Poland on the same weekend which by the way was fabulous! and two, I just am not quite that fit yet!  I can walk around 8 miles currently.  I searched for something else that I could do to replace the Hadrians wall walk for now and have found a 13k walk with the Rotary Club in Romsey and I will be doing this walk with my husband on the 9th October to raise money for Cancer Research UK.  There is a link to our fundraising page if you would like to sponser us or use this one http://www.justgiving.com/Jacqueline-Lambert0  Hopefully soon I will be fit enough to do the Hadrians wall one.


EVERY POUND HELPS!!!

ONE YEAR ON....

Well I have just had my one year check up at the Hospital.  It went very well.  My surgeon was so pleased with my progress he asked if I could join them at forums for new patients as an inspiation.  I most definatley will be, this has changed my life so much I would recommend it to anyone.  So...

Total loss in 1 year, 9 stone 4llbs.
BMI from 48 to 26.6 (goal 25)
Body fat from 58.3 to 32% (goal 24 - 27%)
Body muscle from 41.7 to 68% (goal 73 - 76%)
Blood pressure from high to normal
Clothes size from 28UK to 12/14UK
Movement from walking with a limp in special shoes to running in heals!
Marriage status from single to married! LOL
Happiness from Moderate to over the B***** Moon!

It has been one roller coaster of a year but I am so glad I did it.  Just the last few llbs to go and I will be in the ideal range on the charts and no longer overweight/obese/morbidly obese!  My health has improved so much, I am off all medication pre op.  I only take meds due to the op now. I still have a few goals to hit but I have hit so many I know I am going to hit the rest.
