She is exercising and in a marathon training program, so I hope she ends up losing her excess weight whether that is her goal or not.

“It’s About Visibility.”
I wish it was just about doing something she wants to do for herself. It’s perfectly acceptable to have a goal that’s just what you want. Everything doesn’t have to be a Campaign.
That said, I hope she succeeds and enjoys it.

Weight loss comes primarily from diet. Her knees will be shot pounding all that weight.

Not to mention the extra beating her heart prob took. She should focus on losing weight BEFORE running a marathon before her heart gives out.

To: FatherofFive
She probably has to walk these races for the most part, or alternate running with walking. Long distance walks are great fat burners (assuming you are not scarfing down carbs for fuel all during the race).

I wasn’t sure if that was an infinite animated gif, or, a Newtonian mass/body in permanent orbit around itself.

Her knees will be shot pounding all that weight. As a man who's recently lost 60 pounds, I can tell you that running now vs. 60 pounds ago is like night and day.

More power to her.
And if she ends up healthier for it, even better.

What’s blaringly missing from the article was her weight before/after the 20-weeks and 2 marathons.

She will kill her knees - most people should NOT run. Hopefully she’ll see the pounds melt away from being active.
To: Red Badger
At least the ballet dancer is moving her body and getting some exercise.
