From Brian: OK, so week 11 of the Fittest Loser begins. I drop my wife off at the airport and she is going to be gone for 9 days at a conference in Orlando. Me and my son have a free week and half together….BOOM! He gets ill and is puking…..I think typical teenager…out with friends eating everything and now he’s sick….next day he can’t go to school still sick. Hhhmmmmmm. Sunday night into Monday morning I am sick – same thing….geez! Tuesday morning…..Hey, I feel better (or so I think), head into Push Fitness and work out with Super Steve…..Feel good heading to work afterwards…..by 2:30 PM..uh oh……..not feeling so good. by 5:30 have 101 fever and stomach is a mess. This goes on for 2 more days……can’t eat, can’t work out….start feeling a little better today late Thursday and son is back at school. Get a call from son….backpack stolen out of the gym at school with new iPhone4, his new glasses, his graphing calculator and all his course work………Now had I still been 275, I have no doubt I would be on the floor with a full on stroke but since I’m in much better shape, I’m not even winded going all out gorilla about the whole thing. No idea what the scale will say this week but having a great frame of mind definately helps deal with things when life happens…….Serenity now!
