Fitness Friday....Best Body Bootcamp Week 4

At the beginning of this week I was geared up to have the best week yet.  I was pumped and ready to not only lose weight but gain strength and run the most miles in a week since I had Aubrey....then Monday afternoon came and life changed.  We got a call that the next day our 3 1/2 month old would be going in for surgery to remove a hemangioma from her eye.  Immediately we all sprang into action making plans for our Em, booking a hotel (since there was a snow storm outside), and packing everything we could think of.  Within an hour we were on our way to Boston before reality could set in!  Tuesday was beyond rough but Aubrey is doing amazing and we are forever in awe of God's faithfulness and the support of so many! 

Some weeks we have the best laid plans before life steps in.  While the surgery only took one day, emotionally I'm spent.  I've kept up with my workouts for the most part but my heart is just not there.  I went for a run Wednesday seeking that feeling you get after a great run...you know like every step you take is stripping off another layer of stress but it just didn't happen.  Last week's bootcamp rocked and this one is no different....I can feel myself getting stronger and I'm looking forward to doing the fit test to see how far I've come!  I'm looking forward to next week....you know when I plan it all out again!!

Moral of the story....life throws you curves, it always does but you don't need to stay there.  When your plans go off track, take another track to where you're going!!!

  1. Glad Aubrey is doing good. S hard to see the little ones have to go through that.

    There is always another chance to workout and get it right.

  2. I'm so happy Aubrey is ok. My week was thrown off by a big curve. After my initial frustration I reminded myself that it happens and tomorrow/this week is another day/week. I constantly have to remind myself that things happen that are out of my control and most often not due to something I did or didn't do.

  3. Oh no! I'm glad Aubrey is doing well. So scary! Life is crazy and complicated and throws curve balls all the time. Hope that's the last of them for you!

  4. Glad your daughter is well. I was thrown a big curve ball in September with my health and have learned to take it one day at a time and do what I love when I can.
