So as many of you know I have been given the opportunity to take part in Big Weight Loss Challenge sponsored by Sweat Life Fitness and Giggle Magazine. Me and 5 other moms have been chosen to take part in a 14 week program that will consist of personal training, diet and nutrition. Part of this journey is to start a personal blog. It gives me accountability and allows me to reflect on what I am going through and also to be an inspiration to others.
Many friends asked how I got chosen for the BWLC and to be honest I think it was luck. I had first heard of the BWLC when last years contestants came to Cloud 9 Spa for a make over. At that time I was told they were having a contest for next year contestants. I thought to myself I should apply, but like everything else in my life I kept blowing it off. One day by chance I was looking up workout places, cause I was tried of be fat and unhealthy, and came along to Sweat Life Fitness website. There I saw the contest link to Giggle Magazine were to my luck I had one week before the dead line, so I applied. I found out in October that I was chosen. I was at work when I found out and all I remember I was so filled with joy that I started to cry. Having to keep the news a secret I was unable to tell friends and family until December, it was a hard secret to keep.
So my journey starts on January 3,2011. I will be working out 3 times a week and I am so excited. Actually I am filled with so many emotions :
I am scared that I will fail like so many times in the past. BUT Failure is not an option this time.
I wonder what I will look like at the end.
I hope that my family gets on board with my journey.
I look forward to the new friendships I am sure to form.
