Look at me, so unsuspecting. Little did I know I’d wake up the next day feeling miserable.
But first, an update on the sickness: Still here, but I’m feeling better! And it seems that Sam is feeling better too, so yay! It was actually pretty lame timing, because the Tone It Up Bikini Series just started, and I was all amped up and ready to go, and then BOOM. SICK. Not fun! But I’m still following the meals loosely, eating healthy and making good decisions, and I even worked up the energy to do my bootycall (just their word for a workout you do in the morning- not, like, an actual bootycall, that would be awkward……. anyway…) yesterday, so hey! I think that’s an improvement! I mean, it was pretty low impact, nothing crazy or intense, but just doing something always makes me feel better. Not gonna let this cold get me down!
Speaking of working out… It’s time for the Tone It Up Bikini Series! If you want, it’s not too late to sign up here! We can all do this together. :) I just love the community and it’s an awesome and motivating thing to be a part of! Plus, it’s free, so yeaahhhh, no excuses! Let me know if you plan on doing it in the comments! [p.s. follow me on snapchat @katiedid_what and my fitness instagram @katiedidwhat_tiu for loads of fitness updates daily!]
This is a new favorite healthy snack, from the Bikini Series! Dip a banana in some peanut butter and chia seeds. SO simple, easy and seriously good!
So like I said in yesterday’s post, we were at Marshall’s, and I was scouring the racks for some spring fashion, and lo and behold, my husband picks up this adorable dress! I was like, I have taught you well, dear sir. I MEAN. He wins. Which in turn means that I win. #winning (is that still allowed to be a thing?)
I just did some shopping for le bébé on thredUP yesterday, and I am sooooo excited to get it! I kind of went crazy, but honestly, sometimes (okay, most times) it’s just more fun to shop for him than it is for myself! So many cute things! And they’re all miniature! And! And! Well, okay, I also got some d’orsay heels for myself. They were just too pretty to pass up! If you want to shop at thredUP, and it’s your first time, be sure to sign up here to get $10 free!
And a happy weekending to you! Get out there and enjoy the days! Hopefully we’ll be on the up and up and be able to get out for some runs and maybe a picnic or something. We’ll see!

I am going to have to check out this bikini series for myself. I’ve been so good about eating healthier and getting in my workouts for the last couple of months, but I’m constantly looking for something new to keep it fresh and fun! And way to go hubby on finding that dress! It’s completely adorable.
Katie
GIRL. The Bikini Series is SO amazing and motivating! It’s way better when you feel like you’re doing this with a bunch of other awesome women than just by yourself! :)

Natalie @ Never Serious Blog

Katie

Cute dress! So perfect for spring. Major props to your hubby on that one! ;)
Gotta love ThredUp! I’ve been finding all sorts of good finds for maternity wear, and yes, I’ve scored some great things for Hunter too!
Katie
YESSSS I love finding cute maternity things on thredUp! Girl, you are too too cute- I’m loving following along your pregnancy journey, my friend! <3

I’m doing the bikini series! I don’t have the nutrition plan so I just do their workouts and count my calories to make sure I am eating low calorie/semi-healthy stuff. I have been following their weekly workout schedule Monday-Friday since January and have lost 12 pounds and gone down 2 sizes! Getting ready for my wedding in June :)
I hope you feel better soon! xoxo
Katie
WHO, way to go girl!!!! That is AMAZING! :) I just love Tone It Up, so it makes me happy hearing things like that. You ROCK!!!

I try to follow their workouts but I’m so tempted to buy the plan to get all the recipes etc! Would you say it’s worth it? I try to eat clean/healthy anyway and don’t have much weight to lose so not sure if its worth it or not! x
Katie
Hmmm well, I didn’t get it to lose weight, either! I just love the lifestyle and love the recipes- there’s some really good ones! And SO MANY, too. Plus, you get every previous update and addition, and all the ones to come, which is pretty awesome. I definitely recommend it! It is definitely pricey, so you have to think how much you’d actually use it, I suppose. For me, I am a HUGE nutrition nerd and LOVE reading all about what each food and various nutrition does to my body, and they explain it in so much detail! It’s a splurge, but one that I would say is so worth it, in my opinion! Hope this helped! :)

Totally doing the Bikini Series! Ok, well loosely doing it. Kind of hard with a three month old who gets super jealy of your time and doesn’t seem to want to nap for very long anymore.
Katie
Awww I totally get that!!! You do what you can. And that’s all you can do! :) Way to go doing it at all, girl!! That’s awesome and NOT easy!
