Day 8

I need to write my blog when the emotions are still fresh, but today I didn't have time. My schedule is super crazy right now. I go to Bootcamp in the morning, then my kids have swim, dance, and ice skating every day of the week, and then I attend school in the evenings for 4 hours. When school starts for the kids next month, I will also be the secretary for the PTA at my kids school. It seems super crazy but my kids are having a super fun summer.

Today was hard, but I was determined to push myself, I pushed pretty hard through the first half, the second half was not so easy. Luckily for me instructor Thomas had my back, along with all the other PT's. they pushed me until I couldn't push anymore, and then they pushed me some more.

I wasn't sure I would make it through the workout today and there were times I wanted to just stop. I didn't though and even with the extra push-ups I had to do, I made it through. 

It felt awesome!!!

The love and support of the PT's and the instructor have been super awesome. During hell week the instructor uses a lot of tough love, telling you that you should feel shame for getting the way you are and teaching you that it is not okay to be unhealthy. Hearing things like that can be intimidating and frustrating when you have low self esteem. I have changed a lot from this experience so far and I'm not done yet. I am learning about nutrition and exercise and I'm learning what it is like to work hard for something. It is not easy, but if you need to lose weight and need to change the way you feel about yourself, this is the place to do it. I have gained a lot in only a week and a half, and I know that I will continue to grow and learn and become a different person.

I plead with you to consider doing this sometime. It doesn't matter if you are skinny or fat, or super healthy, or if You have the best self esteem or the worst. If you have a chance to do it, I would highly reccomend it. I promise it will be worth your time. It will change your life.

Don't wait to change your life. The sooner you get through the pain, the sooner you can feel better about yourself, have more energy, and be able to enjoy your life to the fullest.

Join me!! I would love to see you all succeed in feeling better both in mind and body. I'm here to help you as I am helping myself.

A dream of blues

P.s. isn't it funny how much the emotions change every day?? Yeah, it's worth it every day, its worth it! Trust me, I've already learned so much!!!
