Sooooo, I wake up today with a pinched nerve and a sore IT band. What is going to happen to me TODAY at Boot Camp?? I am going to end up in a wheelchair. I decided not to go to Boot Camp this evening and give my crippling body a day to rest.
Even if I am crippled tomorrow I will probably go and just walk the track. I will check with Kerry to see what he thinks. I hate missing a day since I paid for it, but the holidays are coming and I need to NOT be in traction.
I really do run around a lot at work -

Boot Camp - Day 2
Woke up today with my IT band so tight. I know I can work it out tonight but until then I am limping, and yes people are noticing.
Today boot camp was held at Klein Stadium. I knew what this meant, sprints and bleachers and I was not wrong. After a brief warm up, we jogged a lap around the field and then lined up on the end zone for sprints. Then we moved to chariot, one person is holding another person back while they run across the field. hmmm I seem to have tweaked something in my back - shooting pains....
During bleacher run Kerry, the trainer, was dogging my running shoes. I asked what was wrong with them and he said "they're Nike's". OMG I love my Nike's. He said they would give me shin splints. They haven't yet.
I didn't make it to work today, had errands to take care of so my calorie burn was lower today than yesterday.

Boot Camp - Day 1
I took the week off to rest and started Boot Camp at a place I found on-line that is near my office. It is from 7-8ish every night for 2 weeks. Bionik - I also joined for 3 months to see if I like working out near work. If not, I will move on to something else.
Tonight I was pacing myself and doing well until we had to lift logs. They ran out of the smaller ones and 5 girls ended up on the much larger heavier one. It was heavy and also quite large so that our hands did not fit on them. More than once I said I couldn't do anymore. But I powered through (and now my hip hurts). Time to take some Advil.
We are supposed to take photos of everything we eat and post it on the Facebook page. We'll see how that goes.
I ran around a lot at work today so am not surprised by the high number
Calorie burn today - 3158
Total weight loss to date - 30 pounds!!!!! I was so shocked by this number that I weighed myself 3 times.

Day 29 - traveling
Dad surprised me at the airport. He was sick too. The ride home was not great. We each had our own spit cups. LOVELY!
We were so miserable we decided to drive straight through - we drove right through the night - 22.5 hours.
Dad collapsed when we got to the house and didn't get up for 2 days. I spent the next day with mom, going to lunch (although I did not eat) and did some Christmas and grocery shopping.
On my way home now. I am going to take some time off to get well and settled back in at home and work.
I did lose some more weight - Cam was right. Total weight loss = 26.7 pounds!!!!

Day 28 - Weigh out
We said goodnight to friends last night and today is just about weighing out, packing and traveling.
My final weight loss - 23.7 pounds - Cam told me that since I was sick I will lose more when I get home. Inches lost - 9
Now to the airport to drop Jeff off and pick up my dad for the ride home. I am going to surprise him that I am sick.
No calorie count today

Day 27 - Recovery and Graduation
I spent most of today in bed. I tried to swallow a pill and it lodged in my swollen glands. I drank half a liter of water trying to dislodge it but screw it, it can stay.
I managed to make it to graduation, my last one and Sarah was kind enough to zap me some tomato soup because I could not eat the dinner. I had to cancel my last spa appointment but did not care because I felt so crappy.
There was a LOVELY photo of me in the video from Thanksgiving dinner when I was not feeling well. I looked horrible. I will find it and post it here. It is pretty sad.
Again no calorie count today.

Day 26 - Mumps
Yesterday I managed to make it to Thanksgiving dinner even though I was feeling icky. My throat this morning is making it impossible to swallow water and I am freezing! I am wearing 3 layers and have my heat on 80.
I trek down to the local CVS Minute Clinic and upon seeing the doc (?) she immediately tells me what is NOT wrong with me and tells me I probably have a virus. THEN she asks me what she is treating me for. I told her a sinus infection and she tells me I don't have that. I am too sick to move, which is a good thing because I might have slugged her. I repeat that I have a sinus infection and suggest she examine me - what a concept! Lo and behold I have a severe sinus infection complete with 102 fever and glands so swollen it looks like I have the mumps. THEN she asks me what medicine I would like. I was going to have to get stitches soon from biting my lip. Anyway....I ended up with a Zpak and back to bed to sweat it off. Hey at least I was sweating and not working out.
I had complained about the no choc covered strawberries this week and they added them today. Cathy brought me some and I tried to eat them but alas was not able and what I did eat did not really have a taste.
No calorie count today.
