My Personal Fitness Challenge Day 5

I was chatting with my husband the night before this challenge started.  I said I don't know how to feel about this whole process.  Am I nervous or am I excited?  I have really set myself up this time with all the elements to be successful.  I am so thrilled to be one of the 3 selected to participate so I would not want to show anything but appreciation for that.  How can I show that? By being successful.  I also would not want to be the one in our group to not loose weight, I am way to competitive for that. 

I also find myself dreaming of exposing the skinny chick who is stuck inside this fat suit. She is full of life and adventure and just cant wait to get out and explore the world.  My bucket list is increasing as my thoughts go to how much easier life will be 100 lbs lighter.  I am very excited to report that I have now been successful for 5 days in a row.  It has been a while since I have been this motivated.  

I was in a class all day today.  I was greeted with muffins, scones and other pastries.  There was lots of coffee there too, which I very much enjoy with 2 cream and 1 sugar.  For this reason I have quit coffee and switched to tea which I very much enjoy black.  Guess what no tea in sight.  For the first time in my life I had a big cup of Joe black.  After not having any coffee for nearly a week I felt wired after the cup was done.  I could have run a marathon but I was stuck in class.  I had my green smoothie, followed by my almond milk blue berry protein shake while my classmates all around me stuffed their faces with the pastries.  I didn't waiver.  I want this too bad, this is my time to win.  Stay tuned, lots more to follow.....
