Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.......
 Today I volunteered with all my friends from the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and exchanged e-mails with people and spoke with my old coach who was just absolutely amazed at my transformation from a couple of years ago.  If anybody saw me then versus now, they'd be shocked like she was.:)  114 pounds and still going strong.  I'm so close to my goal of having all this weight off.  It felt so good seeing everyone and, in a way, doing the walk with Leukemia & Lymphoma Society made me realize I needed to make a change with my weight, that, and the fact that my health was being affected by being so huge.  Jackie, my former coach, and I talked and she really wants me to do another walk with them.  I told her, not this year, but definitely probably next, when I do the full-marathon for Marine Corps for the first time.  Because of my weight and all, I was planning to do this marathon, but ended up doing a half-marathon with Baltimore because I was so very out of shape.  Now two years later, I'm in very good shape and doing marathons/half-marathons left and right.  So, since I never got a chance to do it my first time go round, I'm doing it my second and Jackie will be my coach and I just cannot wait!!!!!
