First let me apologize I really wish I was better at keeping up with this, but a girl's gotta have a life and well I do teach 24 pretty awesome kids every day who depend on me a whole lot!
So a little re-cap... last week was hectic, crazy, stressful and just one of those I was tired of by about Wednesday morning... I did manage to get up and be at the gym at 5:30 Friday morning, which was something I never thought I'd do. Weigh in Friday night- 1 lb down...... It wasn't exactly my happy face, but I knew this week had been out to get me... especially the stress but honestly I won... beacuse I still lost a pound! Yay me!
Friday night I met my parents for dinner and didn't do much else... it was nice to have some Saturday time to myself to do a few errands and gather items for Mother's Day and the ma's birthday on Monday! She loves to double wham me!
Saturday afternoon I told Samanthat we were gonna tear up the roads... and we did! Let me brag on that girl for a minute... she stuck it out the whole time... she ran when I told her to run and she NEVER quit on me and that was one long freaking walk/run.... 5.6 miles to be exact! I was so proud of both of us!
Sunday I got to spend the day with a lot of my family which really was nice... oh Enoree! We took family pics and seeing them made me super ecstatic! Can't wait to post them and print them! I'd post them here, but this thing is being ridiculous when I try to do that.... so until later!
Sunday me and Sarah and Andrea went for a walk....
No need to go into the rest but just know this... I have struggled this week with feeling pretty crappy... but I've still got my workouts in. And today... 3 of them.. I started with 30 mins of cardio around 5:45 am, walked and did weights at school with J Biggy and then met my awesome GRIT team for this new 12 weeks of GRIT. Let me tell you something.. that was some tough shit.. excuse my language please...but it was HARD! During that one track with all those clean and presses.. I hit every single one of them.. and every time that I did I got chills.. and I even started to cry one time...
Don't get me wrong I'm not sad about that at all, but you don't understand what it's like for a girl like me to come from where I have and be able to do stuff like that... It's empowering, it's moving.. it's amazing!
I am stil a little scared of those jumps on and off the step.. but I'm coming after those things... soon! I did feel like I was gonna toss my cookies tonight, but I managed to keep it going! I was surrounded.. literally by my amazing team.. I was seriously in the middle of them and I could feel their energy and know we all work so well together. It's really one of the greatest feelings EVER! I can't thank Marie, Libba, Tracy, Stephanie, Andrea, Lauren, Joan, and Samantha enough.. and our amazing leader BRIE makes me find that inner push EVERY SINGLE TIME! I love them and they have changed my life in a way I can never explain....
This IS THE WEEK!... Stay tuned for a weekend update for something EXCITING!
Love you peeps!
