Girl Interrupted

Do you want the good news or bad news???  Good news helps off set the bad news right?? 

The good news is I really like the Jillian Michaels Body Revolution. The work outs have been fun, fast paced, and I have burned lots of calories!!!! I have also increased my overall weight loss total to 36.4 pounds, my total since committing to working out with a 90 day program and staying in calories is  9.1, and my wedding ring is beginning to fit again.  All things to celebrate!!!!!  I can also celebrate all the people God has brought into my life to support and encourage me.  I am so thankful for everyone of you.  It is the accountability that helps me.  I pray that you will be blessed like you have blessed me!!!

One such person is a friend that God has placed in my life.  She even went out and purchased the JMBR program to do it with me.  On Monday 9-17-12 I was feeling very anxious, stressed, and overwhelmed.  This precious friend committed to going on a walk/run with me.  I should have paid her a co-pay for the awesome listener she was for me!  That is one of the things I LOVE about running.....you just run it all out. 

It was this night I became girl interrupted! 

When I crawled in bed that night, my knee was sore, this was not new, I injured it about 5 weeks earlier. During the night it became painful.  I could not sleep on my right side and it became increasingly difficult to walk the next day.  A doctor visit and MRI later shows I have a torn meniscus.  I have attempted to modify workouts but it is hard and it hurts. 

I will be continuing to eat healthy and making an appointment with an orthopedic doc. 

God showed me a bible verse last week during my bible study for interruptions like these.  Maybe it will help you with your interruptions.

"Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you suddenly like a trap." Luke 21:34

Lets not let anxieties weigh us down.
