Just sitting in bed watching Greys Anatomy and thinking about today.  It was a good day, but it was a bit painful.  I'm pretty tired and mentally drained.

First thing this morning I headed down to Comcast to do a short interview with my trainer and a local talk show host.  It was fun, I was a nervous wreck, I'm hoping it comes out okay.  It supposed to air about 21 times next week on the local cable channel.  Hopefully they will link it to her website and I can post it when its up.

My eating was great today...it feels so good to be able to say that 3 days in a row.  My workout on the other hand sucked.  It was so hard for me...my shoulders were burning.  I had to do as many rounds as possible in 8 minutes of 8 wall balls w/ a 12 or 14 lb ball, 8 ball slams w/20lb ball.  That 20 pounder did me in.  My legs were burning; especially my right leg.  The tingling is so annoying and I've had this terrible tight, burning sensation across the center of my thigh.  It slows me down, it gives me anxiety, which I think may be causing me to become winded sooner.  I'm not sure how many I ended up doing, but it wasn't much at all.  If I wasn't so excited that I could participate in a regular workout I would allow myself to get discouraged.  I am really working on fighting off those feelings

I'll be seeing a back specialist tomorrow, well I'm supposed to be anyway.  I cant locate the disk and report from the MRI...I really just want to cry right now.  I'll call the imaging place in the morning with the hopes that they can at least fax the report over.

I heard from my functional Neurologist yesterday.  He wanted to know why I was taking a certain medication; he said that it has been shown to have an effect on hormones as well as liver enzymes. Right now he's trying to figure out a plan to work either around it, or replace it with the support of your my MD. Hoping to get in and see him soon to really get things rolling.
I'm excited to talk with a lady that was sent to me who is scheduled to have bypass surgery.  We are in the process of playing phone tag.  She is having second thoughts so I'm hoping to encourage her to take the right route.  I was just a step or 2 away from making an appointment to have gastric bypass surgery...I am so thankful I didn't go through with it.  I'm praying that our conversation leads her down the right path.

Seems like so much is going on; I'm curious to see where it all ends up.
