Hi, I'm Michelle, a former fat girl. I'm also a food addict. I've lost 90 lbs since September 2008 following a clean eating diet. I have added exercise and training for a triathlon (July 12, 2009) and half-marathon (August 2, 2009) to shed the final 40 lbs and to get rid of some jiggly parts :)
Some people think losing 90 lbs means I've been "cured". That is far from the truth. I...
When I decided at age nine to become a doctor, I had no idea who would be my sickest patient. Over the next 45 years I did everything I required to become a good pediatric cardiologist. I earned degrees from Yale and Chicago Med. I trained at institutions such as Mayo clinic, Northwestern and Harvard. I practiced in several states and became Chief of my Division.

I’ve lived in Iowa for the better part of 26 years (minus a three year stint in Minneapolis after college) and while it may get a bad rap, Iowa’s a fabulous place to live!

In 2006 I become an Ironman. In 2008 doing my third Ironman, I raced to the point of kidney and liver failure. I was given hours to live and yet here I am. I may get to train and race again in 2009. Stick around and find out. ‘Common Man Syndrome’ is a lazy and uninspired life. Breakout and be UNcommon by setting a goal and reaching it.
I'm a 20 year participant in the sport of triathlons. I have been a triathlon junkie since 1989. In addition to that, in the last 5 or so years, I've become a bit of a nutrition junkie as well as it relates to training and racing. My wife and I are currently both racing and training as professional triathletes and coaches.
