End of week 5. Getting anxious for next week. Weigh in and measurements. Can't wait to see how far I have come,but also hoping it is more than what I think. Feeling great. I have a ton of energy everyday and just feel much better.
I increased my weights today. It was hard in some areas and easier in others. I just want to keep on improving my self and getting healthier.
I feel the support from all of my friends. Everyone asks me how it is going and that they are very proud of me. That makes me feel good. I hope to be an inspiration for others to make a change. If I can do it with all the excuses I have given over the years. Anyone can do it. Just put 1 foot in front of the other and go from there. The first step is the hardest after that it is just motivation.

Hello All,
End of week 4. It has been a harsh week for me. Food has been a struggle. Alot of stress this week at the job. Being an emotional eater really sucks. I felt I had a handle on it going thru Valentine's day without eating any chocolate or diverting from the menu. Then a huge thing happened at work on Wednesday and threw it all out the window. I felt so bad about slipping on Wednesday that I worked extra hard on Thursday & Friday mornings. It felt good to step up my game. I see where I was 4 weeks ago to know. I have gained some ground. I still have a long way to go, but I know I can get there.
I do have to say that the support that I receive from the morning group is phenomenal. They are a great group of people and want to really see everyone succeed. Without them, my friends and family I could not do this and would not stick to it. Thanks to all of you.
I have lost a pant and shirt size and feel wonderful. I have more energy everyday and look forward to starting my day with a great work out with a great group of people.
I will leave you with this quote. Hopefully it makes you think about yourself and what your brick wall are.

The brick walls are there for a reason.
They're not there to keep us out.
The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something".

Hello All,
Sorry I was not able to blog last week. Very busy and I don't like it. It is the middle of week 3 and I am enjoying the workouts very much. I find myself getting up earlier to do things around the house before my workout. I also have a huge amount of energy that I didn't before. That is great. I am finding the food part a little difficult I am in meetings all day, on the road or just in places where I can't take a cooler in with me to carry my food for the day. Of course I am trying very hard to stay within thew guidelines, but it is not easy when you can't bring the food with you. Restaurants think they are making a pretty healthy meal, but not as healthy as they should.
I am excited to go to 6 days a week this week, but I cannot be there for the first Saturday. I am going to do a workout where I am at and try and get my sister in laws to workout with me. It will defiantly be an experience.
I would like to finish my blog with a huge thank you to all of the group of moosers for their support in our journey together. Thank you to the other people at Bootcamp for supporting us in what we all know is not an easy task, but know that we can do it an thank you BEN. You can motivate people to do things they don't think they can, but also you understand us and don't judge us. You are AWESOME!!!!!!
