Due to the overwhelming response to my last video blog I decided to do a series of videos to take you through my journey and maybe offer a little advise. Thanks to my friends for giving me the inspiration.

:)

 

If you have never tried Verve you need to. This is the BEST energy drink I have EVER had!! No lie either. It contains a natural caffeine that Jillian Michaels recommends in her new book "Making the Cut". Try it....you won't be disappointed!! It also comes in SUGAR FREE!!

Well, as you can see I finally made some changes to the page. I am not sure how it's going to go over with katie because I have just kind of taken it over. I just assume, at this point, she really doesnt care about keeping up with it but I do! I will keep my fingers crossed that it doesnt cause any hard feelings. When I blog, this is where I do it so it make sense to keep it going.

 

Anyway, I hope to get some pics of my kickboxing soon. I told my hubby he can come and watch the class some time but not until I am better at it. I have been hurting really bad so I have only been able to go twice a week. They do A LOT of ab & core work at the beginning of the class and it's taking it's toll on the area/side I had my surgery on. I didn't tell the teacher I had surgery in the last couple months because I didnt think it would be a big deal but turns out it is. I am just going to have to ease into. I mean they do probably 500 total of different ab excersizes. UGH!! That's more then this old body can handle right now. LOL!!!

 

I am also trying to fit in some 'Zumba' classes (it's a latin dance/aerobic class) and Body Pump. That is just a weight training class. I still try to get to Marty and Amy's boot camp too...ugh! I am burning the candle at both end I guess. No wonder I don't feel good, right!?

 

Well, gotta run. Will try to put on some more pics soon!!!

 

 

 

 

Sorry it’s been so long since my last post. My niece graduated and we are finally done with all the celebrations. I am SO proud of her. She missed being one of the valedictorians by .01 percent. That is still nothing to be ashamed about though. I didn’t even have a 3.0 GPA when I graduated I think it was like 2.9 so I guess it was pretty close anyway. Well, I wanted to touch base with everyone to let you know I am alive.  J Here is the video I made for my niece. It’s the final cut!! 

 

 

OK...I went to boot camp last night and it was TOO soon. I was really hurting 20 minutes into it. I kept going and finished but I felt so defeated. I don’t mean to brag but usually I am “leader” when we are running or doing some sort of circuit but this time, I was dragging behind everyone. I could only do about half what was asked of me. It was like running really, really hard and you get that side ache but it was really deep inside my body and it almost made me nauseas. I almost started to cry. I am going to try again next week. I mean I know it might be stupid but I have to get back to it some time.  It’s been about 6 weeks now so I needed to do it. I told everyone 4 ½ weeks last night but I was wrong….sorry! It doesn’t seem like it’s been that long.

When everyone left my house last night I just sat in the bath tub and cried. I felt like I let myself down so bad. I know I shouldn’t feel like that but I do. I have too high of expectations for myself.

Today it hurts right where my gallbladder was and it feel a lot like it did when I had my attack. I really wish I could go home but we are so short handed today there is no way I can. UGH!!

Anyway, I know I am rambling and I am not sure this even makes sense. I feel like my head is disconnected from my body. Well, I gotta go. More later.

Did everyone decide to do My Space instead?? It's been quiet.

 

Up until last night, I have been feeling amazing! I ate too much last night so I am feeling the after effects of it today. Other than that, I have been GREAT!! I can't wait to get back to boot camp next week with Marty and Amy.

 

Well, I have a lot to do today so I will write more later on.

 

HUGS!!

I am feeling much better. I can do most things I was before just not with as much intensity as before. I am just getting back at it very slowly. I was very sick on Monday. I think I ate just too much fat and it hurt SO BAD!! It’s starting to work its way through my system now and I am feeling better. I HAVE to be careful about what I eat. I don’t normally eat much fat anyway but I guess I was indulging too much.  Anywho, I was going to do a video blog but I just am not happy with the ones I have done so I may or may not post them.

I know I had stuff to say but I forgot because  I have been working on this for the last 3 hours between calls. LOL! I will post more as I think of it.

I had to go to Urgent Care yesterday. I was having major pain in my liver/pancreas area. I don't know what is wrong. The word hepatitis has been thrown around once too many times now so I started to do some reading and I found out that hepatitis A can be contract through raw seafood/fish. It didn’t even occur to me that the day before this all happened, I had sushi! OMG! My sushi days are WAY OVER! Could it be that this is what started all of this? Plus, they said you can’t really do anything about it and it just has to basically work its way out of your system, so to speak. It could also be a stone caught in my bile duct that is causing it. If that is the case, I might have to have an oral surgeon go in through my mouth and pluck that little guy out of there. I feel fine as long as I don’t eat. That’s not good either! UGH!

 

So, needless to day, I did not go back to work today. I am going back to the doc today at 5PM CT to see what she has to say. At this point, I really WANT to get back to work and back to a NORMAL life but I am going to assume that it won’t be till next week before I go back. I don’t think I could sit at my desk all day with as uncomfortable as I have been the last 24 hours.

 

Is there anyone out there that is ill too? If so, let’s have a challenge. Since any major workouts are going to be out of the question, let’s at least try to get out and walk for about 30 min every day just to get out of the house. I think it’s so important to not stay sitting around and watching TV all day. Let’s face it, daytime TV really bites! Let me know how you are doing. I am going to get up now and try to get some walking in.

YEAH! My liver enzymes are getting better!! That means my body is healing nicely. WHEW! That is good news. I am going to do a video blog today. I did one yesterday but I didn't like it so I erased it. I am too lazy to sit here and type. LOL! YEAH for me!!!

Hi there! Went to the doc today and things look good!! YEAH! I will be going back to work on Monday.  Ok, I am going to actually be ready for that unless I win the lottery this week. LOL! So, I guess I will be going back to work. I am really tired though. I didn't sleep very well last night. Well, I just wanted to take a minute to update everyone. I am going to go take a hot bath and relax the rest of the day.
