Good Evening,
I know that i have not blogged in about 27 days. I feel bad, i have let my followers down. I've been going through so much that last 27 days i cant even begin to explain. I have so much going on in my life, so many things that i have committed to, but i have not committed to myself. At one point along this journey i was so focused and determined that nothing could get me down. I soon let food starts its horrible take over in my life. it all started with my cheating on Sundays. i really feel like it has destroyed this boot camp, its nobody's fault but my own. I really thought it would work out but its not. My goal for this boot camp was to lose 40 pounds and unless i chop off my right leg that is not going to happen in the next two weeks. I cant believe all i have is two weeks left. I have missed twice so far, but that is still one week. I just get tired of waking up and driving over there, half of this process is eating and exercising, the other half is attitude. if you have a bad attitude you will never complete anything in life. I will still be wearing that blazer at Melissa wedding though, so with two weeks left full speed ahead. I recently watched the Steve Harvey movie " Act like a woman, think like a man" it has be asking myself so many questions. If i want to be in a committed relationship with anyone i have got to get myself together. I have to lose this weight. I will in due time. I know what i need to do, i just have to do it. I have got to push, and push it until i get it right. Im ready and willing to do whatever i have to to make things work, and i will. Tired of being alone, tired of being fat...onward and upward here we go again.

My Mama said I Didn't have to do Burpees
Good Morning Followers,
It has been a great weekend i must say. It was hot and sunny, getting ready for a wonderful and beautiful summer. On saturday we had a free versus saturday mornign workout. There were about 75 people there ready to work out. As steve says they could have been on the couch but they decided you work out instead. I had the pleasure of three important guest, Lucy, Alicia, and my Mother. My mama gave up during the warm up..but alicia and lucy pushed through the whole workout. i was very proud of them. Our workout consisted of the following.
WARM UP
400 METER RUN
HIGH KNEES
JUMPING JACKS
SQUATS
BUTT KICKERS
HIGH KICKS
The work was a Tabata. Tabata is 20 seconds of hard work then 10 seconds of rest for about 4 min. There were 5 stations. Squats, Sucicides, Push-ups, Planks, and Burpees. It was a pretty rough work out but i loved every minute of it. Working out in the sun, and in the grass reminds me of my old football days. As my mother loves to tell the story, she claims i was always picking flowers instead of playing the game. I remember those saturday mornings, the only thing i wanted was the after game snacks. For some reason oranges cut into section in zip lock bags taste amazing, and this is where my love started with HI-C fruit punch with those little orange juice boxes, and who can forget a good rice crispy treat. The was my goal at the end of each game was to make it to the snack line. This workout amazed me. Im sure the fact that my mother was on the sidelines helped, it brought back many memories. For boys you always want to make your mother happy, even if that means doing something you hate doing. You do it because it makes her happy. As i was doing push-ups i could see her in the distance in her pink tshirt and Women of faith Hat..lol. It was a very calming experience, the only thing that changed is i was doing this for myself and not her. The last three months my life has been changed, little by little and I know she is proud of me. She also knows that im the dramatic child, i always have been. My older brother doesnt speak very much, and my little sister is so hood i cant understand anything she nor her friends are saying, So ive always been the talker. Im techinally not a middle child, but i am. I had two older brothers who passed away so that left me the middle child. Ive always tried to use it, and my mama never stands for it lol. I was extremely happy she was there. Lucy you are amazing, im so happy to have you on board with versus get ready to change your life. lucy emailed me about the saturday morning workout. She told me she really wanted to come to test it out. She did and she put forth some great effort and made it all the way through. She now is apart of our 6am boot camp class. Alicia and I have know each other for some time now, and we have battled this thing called weight loss together. she and i were part of WDAM's the biggest loser, i lost, she came in second. So we are very familiar with the stresses that are involved in weight loss and i know that it is not easy. Alicia being the amazing woman she is gets out of her car FULL MAKE UP. no kidding. I started laughing thinking to my self, well all thats about to be in the grass. I could tell she was nervous. I was happy she was there. She made it through all the workouts but the burpees. At the end she told me, ' i could either sit there and pass out or throw up, and i dont want to throw up in front of all these people." But she pushed through. Burpees suck man, they suck so bad. Burpees give you the same feeling like when you are on the toilet taking a dump and there is no toilet paper on the roll, so you reach underneath the cabinet and there is none, thats the feeling burpees give you. I hate burpees. As we crawled to the burpee station, i told the coach my mama said i didnt have to do burpees. She just laughed and said Lets go, its burpee time, like some annoying cheerleader. I made it through, i was soaked in sweat, dirt, grass, and im sure some ants had a heart attack. It was probably one of the best workouts ever. Nicole and Krista were there too. I need krista to start working out in the advance group, she makes us all look bad, she does insanity( im doing my inappropriate hand motion right now). Nicole you stay with my group, i like trying to beat you, you are my motivator. lol. until the next time take care of yourselves and each other, and remember to tip your servers, have your pets spayed and nuetered, and Keep it classy San Diego.
I REALLY SHOULD HAVE USED SPELL CHECK, IT LOOKS LIKE RED ROBIN ON THE SCREEN.
