Happy Healthy Heidi!


On 6/15/09 I went on a weight loss journey to find a happier and healthier Heidi. I found her and she's here to stay! Part 2 was running. This was conquered on 10/2/11 when I became a Marathoner. Now, part 3. I'm becoming a triathlete (swim, bike, run) and getting stronger. This is me, living life in the fast lane.

Ask me anything

27th January 2012

One and done.

Slow walk today to get my mile done. Probably not the smartest thing I’ve ever done, but I’m determined… Apparently. The mile took me 19:38 if that tells you anything.

I’m beyond sore from this surgery. Took a shower tonight and about passed out. I actually had to sit on the floor to get myself together. I was dehydrated so hubby is pumping me full of water now. Im practically living off Vicodin. Once it wears off I can tell.

When the doctor said he was going to do this surgery a little different he wasn’t kidding. I anticipated three small incisions similar to when I had my gallbladder out. They were like pin holes. Instead I have a 3” up & down incision about 2” above my belly button. Not fun.

I wanted to host running group tomorrow. I had planned on being fine for it. Not even close. Couldn’t even tolerate the treadmill over 3.2 mph. My dad is in the group and offered to do it for me. Thankfully!

Alright, time to lay down again. I’m pretty useless. And look like death.

Happy Friday.
