I DID IT!!

Miracles really do happen!! I did 6 days straight at D3 including 4 days of Hell Week, when I did 2 classes a day, usually one in the morning and one in the evening. For real!!

When I signed up for my classes a week ago in my drunken stupor I told myself that I could always cancel a class if I didnt feel up to it on any given day. Then last Saturday when I mentioned to Dre about Hell Week and told her that I would try my best to complete it. But she would not accept my trying. She made me pledge that I would do it..no matter what. I think verbalising it really did make me accountable..to myself. It would have been very easy for me to have said on any of these 6 days, I can't do this..I need at least one day off. This is insane for me to think I could possibly do 6 days straight when for me to do 2 days straight is a huge achievement. But I had made a promise to myself and I rarely break my promises.

One interesting that I noticed about this experience is that this week flew by!! Where did it go? I wonder if it had anything to do with my excercise regime.

So how do I feel? Honestly I feel tired, today was particularly hard for some reason. I am looking forward to sleeping later than 5am!! But I am also extremely proud of myself for achieving my goal of 6 days straight. Not bad for someone who is adverse to excercise!! I had my weak moments especially when I seriously considered skipping out on zumba and going out for cupcakes and cocktails! But I stayed focused!! I DID IT..YAY!!!

Thx Dre for encouraging me throughout and believing in me. I really dont know if I could have done it if you hadnt made sure that I took that pledge to finish it. Plus I didnt want to hear your mouth!!

Thanks Monique. Good job with yoru healthy eating transformation. Sometimes I think making adjustments to our eating habits is harder that adjustments to our excercise routine..this from me who loathes excerise! Also I know what you mean about "going" more regularly. Thats usually my guide to let me know that I am on the right track read food habits etc. Keep it up girly girl!!
