A few items of business have been rolling around in my head today.
1. Day 76 and I still have a long way to go. I am kinda nervous about this being over because my having to answer to someone else is keeping me motivated at this stage of the journey.
2. Why do new things have to be so hard. I am very comfortable with what I am able to do when we are at the gym with Katrina, but the second I step into a different gym I get all freaked out and have no idea what I should or need to be doing. It makes me nervous for when this is all over. Last weekend I took my husband with me to the gym and the local meatheads stared at the fat chick the whole time I was trying to workout because apparently I "need" to be working out but not with them around. One guy stared at me the whole time and it made me very uncomfortable. Jerk!
3. I sent my weekly check in to Traci on Monday and her reply was:
"You would be happy to know that some of the other participants have commented on how impressive your workouts are. Way to give it your all when you're in the gym!"
I just wanted to say thanks to whomever offered the kind words. I really made a difference in my attitude this week.
4. I read THIS story in the news today. It really made me sad. It's amazing how someone flippant comment can hurt someone's feelings even when they aren't involved.
5. I don't think I have any shot at winning with competition, but I am so grateful for the opportunity to learn and grow from it. And also reap the benefits from my hard work.
