msnbc.com has a nice article about which fruits and veggies are worth buying organic and which ones you save your money on.
Right now, we only are getting organic milk but I think I will try expanding my organic purchases to celery and apples as well. I was glad to hear that you don't need to buy organic bananas because we consume a ton of them and buying organic would put me in the poor house.

Notes:
Outside at the park - YEAH!
10min running; pitstop/playground break; 11min running; 3min walking; 5.5min running; 3min walking; 5.5min running; remainder walking
Felt good but slow. This is the longest run I have done in awhile. I received a lot of strange looks from passerbys but thankfully no snarky comments. I was sore afterwards but no pain.

Short run but DS was going crazy about visiting the playground at the park. It was probably a good thing as I don't want to overtax my knee on my first day back to running.

Notes:
I have started undergoing a rigorous rehab routine which seems to be working. Basically icing and stretching three times a day. Ok, maybe not rigorous to lay people but have you seen how difficult it is for a fat preggo lady to get down into hurdler's stretch?
Anyways, it seems to be paying off and the knee feels greatly improved.

Knee Pain Continues :(
My left knee continues to cause me pain. The other night I could barely sleep due to the pain. I am taking Tylenol but it doesn't do much. I would kill for a maximum strength Advil right now.
I've been icing and resting too. The resting is driving me insane. I feel like such a fat blob and I really want to keep running (or should I say waddling). Alas, I probably should take it easy until it heals. I'd rather make a little sacrifice now then have lasting damage later.
Alas, being broken sucks. I am in a such a lousy mood!

The knee pain is back and it made me cut back my exercise time. Very annoying and frustrating.

I had a good core session as I watched The Biggest Loser. That show is great for inspiration. There's nothing like sweating it out alongside other fatties :)
