Day 3

Ow Ow Ow....I mean, Ow! At 8:00 tonight I am hurtin'....like hurting to sit, hurtin to get up...you know the kind of hurtin when it hurts to sit on the potty.....I am about to pop a few ibuprofens and drink a 100 cal. protein shake before bed....Kelly said to do that before bed so my mucsles dont break down but build up and tone. The reason alot of people work out so hard but still are flabby is because they don't get enough protein in their diet.

Well, Boot camp was just like you would think Boot camp would be! It kicked my rear! I loved how we started it today. Kelly opened with Black Eyed Peas, I gotta feeling….I love that song. Whenever Lily and I are in the car together and it comes on….we blast it and sing and dance in the car. It is so much fun! We played it in the kitchen yesterday after school and me and Lily and Tripp just danced in the kitchen to it. It was a moment to tuck away. So when she played it….I got the biggest smile…..and even though I had 59 more minutes of pure sweat and H*E*C*K* ( you thought I was gonna say it) I had that song to begin with.

At minute 56 we began a kinds shuffle. What you do is shuffle from one end to the other and back….Now I am a bit competitive and I will NOT be last. I don’t have to be first, but I refuse to be last. So I started in on that shuffle hard and heavy….I was actually in the lead. Keep it up….I am thinking about how awesome I am doing and BAM! I full on tripped over my foot, and fell and ROLLED!!!! YEP! I pulled a what my family affectionately calls a “shelli” and let me tell you I did it in STYLE! You know, my maiden name is Tripp. I mean to tell you if it had been on video, you would have wet your pants laughing and it would most definitely win on Funniest Home Videos. I cant wait to tell my kids. I just got up and laughed it off…asked my neighbor if it looked good. She was in too much pain to really notice….so I figure no one else really saw.

A lesson there I got was that, we can be cruising along in our day and think to ourselves, “Hey, I am pretty awesome….I am doing good“ Its called…..PRIDE…. And then the next thing you know…BAM we have gone and fallen or messed up somehow or someway…..You know I think it is in the Bible, that pride comes before a fall. Well I learned it today, literally!

I wore a big baggy shirt today and my workout leggings…..thinking I am gonna hide the flubber….I didn’t want my pants to seep down in those squats and everyone see my panties. So today I was prepared….I wore big baggy shirt over my pants. Today, Big Baggy Shirt…not so good. Kelly had us doing “Bear Crawls” You get on your hands and feet…bootie up in the air and walk that way forward to the line and then backwards back. Halfway into that I was flashing my belly and sports bra….cuz my shirt kept creeping up! GEEZE…..so the next round, I tucked the front of my big baggy shirt in my tight pants….lovely….and still, the back of my shirt crept up. Good thing it was all girls!

Kelly killed me with jump squats, frog jumps, burpies….and all kinds of other torture…..but you know what…I lived to tell you about it! So horray, I made it through another boot camp. Stay tuned for more adventures……

Peace Out
