tigers,bears,and seizures, oh my.

this week was a  freaking disaster  .... challenge.
after the work out monday i was feeling on fire. later that night i started feeling a little funny. went to bed, woke up ready for P90x with the ladies but i couldnt get out of bed. so i fortified the work out and dragged ass to work. early in the morning i was talking to my boss still feeling weird and funny, and all the sudden , apparently i had a grand mal seizure. i dont remember to much of it. apparently i started rambling and mumbling and slurring words, and then it happened. LUCKILY. i work with a neurologist (not the one i see on the regular).. so he knew what to do.
but i went to the ER and got an MRI bc its been a year since i had one. kinda put me in a depressed state bc the neurologist i see was working on lowering my meds bc i have been doing well..and they give me some crappy side effects, etc. but i wasnt allowed to do any cardio until i had another MRI done and go the clear Saturday AM. and no boot camp (bc of the intensity of it) until monday. so i got pretty bummed out .
but im all clear now ! i have to increase my meds again (yuck), but oh well. i played a whole lot of soccer yesterday, did a 5 k today, and went to boot camp today too ( a day early , but took it easy).

b- my legs are sore as hell from all the running from the soccer and the 5 k this morning. but getting back into the soccer has really motivated me to get back into the running to build up the cardio i need t keep up with them boys !

l- ive learned sometimes i do have to listen to my body. i hate sitting on the side lines. i like to push hard. but even on thursday when i did p90x with sarah and nina and told them i was thinking of doing boot camp despite what the dr said they were just like.. uh.. are you serious.. lol.. sometimes i just need to trust my body...  so i can come back stronger

o- truthfully, i didnt really have an o yea moment this week :  / . i feel like since i was so depressed i let everything kinda slip. nutrition too.. it was tough week. my o yea moment was kinda opposite. like i need to stop sabotaging myself.. so maybe i did ?

g- my goals this week are to refocus myself. i started out right i think.. by working out sat and doing a double today....

i wanna shout out to danielle. we did the run today and it was awesome. those speed demons in front us lol... but we finished : ) and also to nina , the coach. bc she always pushes me to do other things, like p90x at 530 am and 5ks on sundays at 830 am.... she is a great motivator and she should know that : )
