Tuesday Morning

Well the hike today was thru the burned areas in Calamaos Mountains. The hike was wonderful, tough and totally inspirational. To see the wildlife and the foilage coming back to the area was amazing. We hiked up to the top of one of the mountains and overlooked the oceans and beaches and really makes you think of what a beautiful country we have. After the hike we had stretch class which today was all foam rolling. It felt so good to roll out the knots and muscles that i have been using non stop since i got here. I graduated to the advanced hikers van today and truly thought I was not going to make it. But the guides and the few opthers that were on the hike proved to be all the motivation i needed to do. We Rocked it.

One week down…One to go!!!

What a wonderful week i’ve had at the Biggest Loser Ranch. Starrting each morning with a mountain hike, then an informative lecture, follwed by 4 more exercise classes. I can honestly say that i have done cardio classes and have done strength classes and have combined them both. But I have never done a water class before. Holy cow is it tough. I apologize to anyone if they ever heard me say that an aquatic class isnt hard. I was exhausted after water class.

I have also been fortunate enough to add new friends and some i condiser family to my contact list. The people are so supportive that it makes me feel so happy and blessed to know them. Theres a girl here from Georgia that I have bonded with that if there is trouble to be found….we will find it!!!!!

Kickboxing kicked my butt

Last night i think my head hit the pillow and I was out. After a butt-kicking pool class we had our kickboxing class. OMG it was GREAT. I got rid of so much stress it was unbelievable. And now i just did my stretch class to put myself back together to do it all over again. The hike, the classes…. I love it!!!

Talk more to everyone soon!!

Just when you think that you cant take another step….

Wow….what a hike and what a great day. Tough dosent even begin to describe it. We did our daily hike at BackBone Lantigo. This was a tough hike because igt was narrow and straight up hill and then down!!!! There was a woman on the hike that did had a PB by running down the trail. A full mile down the rocks and MADE it. I was so proud of her because she just said that morning how she wishes she could do a mile run and she did it. The rest of the day was information packed and killer cardio and training classes. We had a speaker on self-esteem where we had to write down 10 things we liked and disliked about ourselves. I’m confident that by the end of my week here i will have eliminated some of those dislikes and will be able to add to the likes.

Until tomorrow…Keep Healthy and stay tuned……
