Definition of HONESTY
I am talking about 2a and b. This blog is an attempt to let you in on my life. The struggles I have had trying to become a surrogate, lose weight, be healthy and run a marathon. These might be hefty goals for some but I know I can do it.
Surrogacy: I have been praying about this for over two years now. I know that God is with me and this is a blessed course I am taking. My husband has prayed about it and has given his blessing to it as well. Lots of my family and friends are aware of my quest to lose weight and apply for this honor. Even as I write this I have a sense of peace and urgency to fulfill what I believe I am called to.
Healthy: I have always been healthy. Just overweight by any standard. I have been this way since I was in elementary school. I have gone through periods of exercise and dieting and have lost weight and gained weight. I used to do this alone, but now my husband joins me on this journey as well. We want to be healthy for our two beautiful daughters and show them how to get exercise without exercising. Let's have some fun!
Run a Marathon: I have been running a program called the Couch to 5K for a few years now. I have helped many non runners become runners and those that used to run ease back into it. I enjoy the social aspect of running and anticipate spending the time with my friends. I feel that once I lose the weight I will be able to run this marathon. I am planning for October 2012 for this event. This will be right around when I hit 36 years of age.
