Knee pain a real pain in the a$$!

So my right knee has been hurting since that last half marathon...... And it flat out sucks!!! I ran friday had little twinges here and there prolly shoulda waited.....I ran Sunday focused on running on my forefoot no pain yeah happy dance..... Monday morning ummm ouch right out of bed!! Can't run can't walk without feeling it and it bites! To say the least! I just want to run. Praying it gets better soon. Have an awesome upcoming race.... San Antonio half marathon relay:). Running it with a relay teammate from the capital to coast! It's a rock n roll marathon race and I've always wanted to do one so if my dang knee will please cooperate I will be so thankful!

I joined weight watchers online to try it out. It's going ok. (My mother lost about 80 pounds on weight watchers and I've been on it several times in my life but didn't try, didn't DO IT- so guess what it didn't work). Weigh in on Wednesdays and will be posting my weigh ins to be accountable. I need some accountability:). So how did you my two followers get followers? Just curious:) I appreciate both of your support and kind words:). If you know about weight watchers I was wondering if u usually used up your weekly points that night before you weighed in or if you just let them go? I have 20 activity points left but I weigh in in the morning so I dunno bout using them right now. I really really want to get to 145 and I just keep standing in my own way with my ah screw it I want a cookie attitude. I've tracked every bite this week. I don't foresee a loss tomorrow just because I just started Friday and not running is not helping my confidence. I've still been moving and trying to get something burned but it just isn't running....that might not make since but it does in my head at this moment lol

My daughter text me this picture from my sons phone yesterday and I was shocked! This was almost 6 months after I had my gastric bypass and I thought I looked cute but yuck my hair don't look good like that and I look so fluffy. Our own worst critics much? Lol yes. I. Am.

My handsome :). He was picked by his class for coronation. He's the duke of his class so proud :)

Angel pie at the festival this past weekend :)

Football/cheer seasons over and will be missed. It was so good to see my son so excited about something:)

Hope y'all are having a fantabulous week:) Thank you for reading I really appreciate it!!!!!

  1. I hope your knee gets better soon. I loved WW when I did it and am seriously considering going back to it for a bit, cause I've been so out of focus the last month.

    I rarely used all my weekly points unless there was a meal out that week, like birthday or Christmas or something, I don't drink so I didn't use them for alcohol. I say go with your gut, if you're hungry, eat. If not, no need to use them.

    Deefinitely don't eat them all the night before weigh in else you will see a false gain on the scale the next day....but it will even out of course, but it just plays games with your head.

    I'm excited about hearing your WW experience.

  2. Your kids are adorable, and your son is so handsome in his tie!

    I almost never use any of my weeklies "officially." However, I will sometimes have a great like a small piece of candy or a bite of something and not count it. That tiny bit of not tracking helps with my mental state, and I figure I can keep it up as long as I don't use up my weeklies in addition to that. :) I definitely wouldn't use them all the night before I weigh in.

    Good luck...hope it works for you!
