It's funny how usually I go to the gym with my head down most days and try not to look anyone in the eye. Last week has been totally different for me. I was there twice a day. I go for my morning Cardio and weights if I have time and then after everyone is settled at home for the night I go back for just cardio. I burn my 500 each time and then leave. There is an employee there that is on my facebook as my friend. He sees me and says, " Here for your Burn 500??" My answer is YES! Just the fact that he notices the little things like that makes me feel supported and that my hard work is being noticed.
So let's talk about that. Support and what exactly does that mean. To me it means a LOT!! Not only do I have it from my husband and children, 2 beauties that also blog on here (Jenna and Crystal.. go read there blogs too), my trainer Sandra Compton, Moe the front desk guy at the gym, My optician Riyaz who is there as much as me and more BUT!! I also have it from total strangers. I had a lady in the change room tell me that she read my blog simply from seeing BF BeautyFit on my gym bag and my BeautyFuel'd tank. She was curious so she checked it out. She said that I was an inspiration for her and she will be following me all the way to my finish line and beyond. She said she knew she could do it too even with a busy schedule. That was the FIRST time I have ever had someone come up to me like that. Pretty cool eh?!
It is all around me and it is awesome. My life is ever changing every day. I am getting stronger by the day physically and mentally. Am I tired though?? Heck yes I am! But, victory will be mine! I meant it when I said I wanted to be "that gurl" again. I also meant it when I said that I will not back down from this challenge. My motivation comes from within me. It also is staring me in my face when I look at my children.
So now on to the next week I go and let's just see where this one bring me.. At the end of this week we have a get together for all the BeautyFit Boot Camp Beauties Past and Present. It will be nice to see everyone again. My fear of shopping for the cute little dress comes in to play this week.... I will have my trusty Sam with me though to get me through the whole change room fears and tears. I will let you know how THAT goes...
Until next week I bid you adieu with sore leg muscles and triceps that are screaming at me some not so pretty names right now :)
