OK, so it has been a while. But I have decided that since the 2nd annual Marethouse Fitness Challenge is right around the corner, that I would set new goals for myself too. Tomorrow I am attending the orientation for the new six, extremely lucky contestants of the next Fitness Challenge. I am going to help them create and manage their blogs during the challenge. I am very excited to help in any way I can. And I am also thrilled to meet, support, and watch their life changing journey begin.
Blogging definitely played an important role in my success. It is not only a wonderful outlet to document, vent, and journal your emotions...but it is also EXCELLENT for accountability too. Believe me, the contestants will be held accountable, especially this year, having to meet and train 5 days a week. But blogging their journey will give their family and friends and opportunity to learn firsthand what they are feeling, what they are going through, and just how hard this whole process is! My husband learned a lot...sometimes more than he wanted to know...from my blogs! My blog definitely took off and it became more popular than I ever thought it would be. If I skipped a day, I would catch grief from co-workers, family members, and friends!
I am also grateful to be involved in the new challenge, so that I can become accountable again too. I still have a ways to go to meet my goal weight, and I need the extra motivation too. I have decided to use this new challenge with the new contestants as a new goal for myself. Utilizing my membership that I won last year, and the knowledge that I have learned, I feel like my goals are very reachable! I received notice this morning that my high school reunion is JUNE 4th....holy crap.I have four more months...EXCELLENT MOTIVATION.
So the bottom line is: It is a new year, new contestants, and I have set new goals too. I look forward to meeting them and blogging this new journey with them.
