I believe I’ve accomplished that:) :) :)

By the next week the temps are finally gonna be in thr 50’s and 60’s so I can FINALLY get off the treadmill and run outside.

My legs are still playing tricks on me….but they are starting to look better more and more…the bad days are becoming fewer and fewer…..YEAH!!!!!

5 weeks out and my legs are finally coming in!!!!  I was really getting nervous they were gone forever.  No workout today….working 18 hrs……but i got in 3 sessions yesterday.  I went for a bi/tri/shoulder workout and then found out I had to teach a spin and bosu class…….I was wiped.  

But even though i was dead tired I couldn’t sleep for the 2nd night in a row……I need sleep
