My PB + J

it’s a weekly thang {weigh-in wednesday}

so i realized that i never posted last week. no biggie, you didn’t miss much. i went up 0.6 oz, which honestly is nothing in the grand scheme of things and it was my first gain. this week i have dealt with more battles, not with my weight but with my body. a few weeks ago i jogged that 5k and was supposed to be doing another one this sunday but last thursday when i went to go run at the gym my knees put a halt to the 5k. i still managed to run for twenty minutes that night paired with my leg workout. i could barely walk on friday while out with the family. saturday morning i slept through my 5 am alarm for spin so i headed out to the gym to run instead. i made it three minutes and i was almost balling. intense pain. i laid low for sunday even though i wanted to go to spin. monday i was limping like an old lady but managed to make it to spin and i made it through the entire sixty minutes plus another leg workout. after thirty i could feel the pain coming back so i backed off the resistance. my knees felt better yesterday but i am very weary of running. maybe it was too soon or maybe my knees are just healing from my bad fall. who knows. i think it’s just an f-you sign from my body letting me i will be thirty in three months. sorry body you will not win this battle. i am strong and will kick you in the. . .

like i said on monday not one single pair of jeans i own fit and that’s roughly twenty pair. sickening. my skin is still saggy, i swear the second kid…however, when i woke-up yesterday morning i could finally see the skin below my belly button tightening up. nine months on, nine months off, right? i am fully confident that by my birthday (three months & one day from today) that i will fit into my designer jeans and if they do by that date jim has agreed that i deserve to purchase a new pair as my final reward. it’s the little things. now let’s pray my body continues to cooperate as i continue to kick ass over the next three months because the last three months have been pretty easy… 

i never do this but last night the hubbs and i actually snuck away together, alone, since my parents are here. i tried a few dresses on and took a pic because i am still not loving myself in a dress. my knees are beat up from the fall and i am in need of a tan, badly. anyhow, what are your thoughts? the dress is one size too big, i get that. but other than that, thoughts? what shoes would you wear? sandals, flats? 

what spring looks are you loving?

happy wednesday!

    OK. Here comes grandma comments.
    1) Don’t give up on running. Slow down… Your knees are just complaining (what shoes are you using?). Once I realized that my knees hurt regardless of if I run or not, I started running. Funny thing is, they don’t really hurt anymore.
    2) You look amazing…and you’ve done an awesome job! Cute wedge sandals with the dress, maybe??
    3) Tell your body F-U back because I believe you are going to love being in your 30s!
