Great news!

[clareMc]

Dear everybody:

I have great news to share!

Some of you who were kind enough to share experiences and advice with me a while back may remember the horrid panic attacks I went through back in October/November. Well, I had to have an echocardiogram/stress test last week to rule out Mitral valve Prolapse or any other heart abnormailty that could be linked to or causing the palpitations and panic. (you should see your heart on an ultrasound, it's incredible, the most amazing piece of technology ever invented)

Got my results today and I am so happy! I am the proud owner of a strong and structurally normal cardiovascular system and heart and I am jumping for joy and high-fivin' with the world! Nothing beats the gift of health and the release of tension knowing that there's nothing wrong with me!!! Yeah, yeah!

So now I can get back to working out again, and I can't wait, I'm like a little kid in a toy shop, and I have all my new BB series DVD's still to try out!! Can't wait to do step blast! Oh no! The first week back is gonna kill me! I can feel the DOMS already.....

I'm on a roll, ain't no stoppin me now......

Thanks for listening and have a GREAT DAY EVERYONE!

Clare (this is me :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 )

So glad you're healthy Clare...now you go out and step, jump, pump (or any of the bodyblast series!) and know that every cell in your body is working just the way it should be x

Clare, that is fantastic news!

A couple days ago I read a post of yours (in the "Looking for Inspiration" thread) and it literally inspired me to work out that day when I wasn't feeling motivated at all. Your advice about just being happy that we are healthy and have strong bodies that can make it through a grueling Cathe workout just made me wish I could give you a great big hug! I kept thinking about that as I made my way through Imax2. I am very happy for you - now go take that healthy heart and give it a big Body Blast "thank you!"

Clare, that is awesome! Happy 2004 to you! You are right, there is nothing like seeing that heart on a sonogram, especially when it's your grandbaby's! :7 Have you tried L&G's yet? Super fun tape! Let us know how you are feeling once you dive into all the workouts. Fun, fun series!
