My Journey Of Losing My Stomach Due To Hereditary Diffuse Gastric Cancer Syndrome
On #GivingTuesday, I’m supporting #NoStomachForCancer because they have helped save my life and many others I love. I’m starting the day off with a $25 donation. Who would like to join me?!

Things are going as expected. I can’t believe it’s been 10 months since my total gastrectomy. I have lost a total of 45 lbs. However, I can still race Triathlon and beat my old times! Next stop – IronMan and Marathon.
However, I haven’t been training as much as I hoped due to soreness after workouts. I also have lost a bit of weight so I’m trying to figure out how to keep the lbs on. My goal is to run the half marathon in January for the Charleston Marathon event. I’ve run it before (with a stomach) and really want to beat my old time but the lack of training certainly will impact me. We will see.
