Today as I was picking out my clothes and having my usual meltdown because I am so big; I told Sam to make sure I ran tonight. You see, I realize that this is the body that God has given me, but I also realize that I have NOT been taking care of it like I should.
One thing I do wish is that I had this:
Can I get an AMEN!
If only I could tap that and poof I’d be back into shape…I mean I’m not asking for a size 2 body…haha…I laugh at the possibility of my body being that small. As a matter of fact, I think I was born a size 2!…poor mom.
So when we FINALLY made it home from church, and we got both boys to sleep…my darling little husband ran upstairs and brought me down my running clothes…I can take a hint. So I begrudgingly put the clothes on and stomped out the door…poor hubby! I was totally NOT in the mood to run. But I did tell him to remind me…my mistake! So me and my womanly (nice way of saying plus size) body ran…I mean struggled through .64 miles.
What?! Am I really that pathetic…whew…glad nobody knows how out of shape I am…oh crap…mistake number two!
So now I am hacking up my lungs and my thighs are screaming because they just got done beating each other up…and I am sure if you were to watch me run from behind you would see two hippos fighting (my hiney)…..remember dad! 😉
I spill my pathetic guts so I can get some accountability here…I mean come on…I need some virtual support here! Testify?!
Here’s to getting into shape before my New Year’s resolution!



I support you in everything and it showed great strength to run that cold weather last night; I am very proud that you followed through and ran last night. Love you and I can’t wait to run at Cowtown with you!
Girl you should see me run, gross.
Are you going to run in a race?
Now that’s a good husband…I am glad he will gently support you. I encourage you to do whatever God lays on your heart. Be careful about how you talk about yourself! Remember when we say things about ourself, we are saying them also about God. You are created in his image…and he loves you deeply! I love ya sis, and I am here for you in whatever way you need me to be.
You can do it!! I thought that after Caroline! (remind me of this in a few months!)
It will get easier! Keep it up. You are doing great.
