Yikes! I can't believe we're in the home stretch! I've loved this experience---it's one of the best things I've ever done. But, in the same token, it's going to be nice to focus on some other things that have had to sometimes take a back seat---I've sort of compartmentalized things in my life so I could stay focused. After the reveal party on Sunday 12/7, I'll take care of a little medical issue, spend some really good quality time with each of my boys, make up for lost time with my husband, and get ready for the holidays. Oh, and buy some clothes that actually fit! :) I will also be looking for a gym (any suggestions?) and a job (anyone hiring?).
I absolutely will continue to follow the nutritional and fitness guidelines that have been personalized for me. I have learned so much about myself and my body. I feel so great right now---healthy and not starving! I intend to lose another 10-12 pounds after it's over, and see how I feel there. I know I'll never go back to how I was. Lisa showed me my "before" pictures, taken after I won the contest and Indra Salon---it's not pretty! I had a 'Jabba the Hut' chin and a nasty little muffin top!!!
We did photos today with Anna and Sam. And a mini-reassessment. Oh, and I picked up my race shirt, chip and number today---I'm so excited to run, I mean SLOG (=slow jog) my first Feaster Five!!
