I can hardly get myself going to run 3 miles lately (in trouble w/marathon). And I HATE going to the gym for weights, HATE IT! The thing that sucks BAD with the abs? My entire lower abs are STILL completely NUMB from my c-section which makes it so hard/weird to do any ab exercises. It sucks so bad- all the ab muscles i had (they were buried in fat even before but at least they were there- i could feel them), are completely GONE and now it's NUMB! STILL!!! I hate it!!!! I checked out a crossfit gym here and it's expensive! i want you to teach me some stuff i can do at home. i wanna learn that crazy house-frog-walk thing you did all over my house when you were here! You look freakin' fantastic, by the way, so keep it up, i'm so impressed!!!!! After the maranthon, i'm going to seriously consider getting into a crossfit place here. i don't think it would be recommended with marathon training (all the programs i've read about are weird about the "approved" cross training activities you should do due to increased chance of injury, etc). But, i def. need to tone-up. Love you! Jami- I cannot imagine doing all that stuff you do. I can hardly get myself going to run 3 miles lately (in trouble w/marathon).

of course, right now, my gut is kinda pudgy because we went out of town for the weekend and i literally (and i’m not kidding) ate two 1 lb bags of peanut butter m&m’s myself…

but, seriously, my crazy gym has given me core strength that i never thought possible. although every day i hear my trainer (jokingly) say, “you can’t out-work a shitty diet.” i know that if i got my eating under control and didn’t own a cupcake bakery i’d totally have like a 32 pack by now…

and, for the record, i think you look amazing. and i think you probably don’t need to change a thing – although, if you want to change a thing, i know you can do it!!

p dot s: when you come to portland, you have to come to the gym with me. maybe after the marathon though!
