A Few More Days...

I only have four more days until the start of the next bootcamp session. I cannot tell you how thrilled I am! I've done very well on my own, but there is something about checking in with an instructor and seeing a bunch of other women working towards their goals that keeps me motivated.

I'm glad to be a part of this fitness program. Normally around this time of year I start to get anxious. It's just the beginning of September but the holidays are looming. It all starts with Halloween. A few extra pieces of candy here and there lead to more temptations and my resistance starts to weaken. Then comes Thanksgiving and Christmas. I often give in to all-or-nothing thinking. If I'm going to eat all of that Halloween candy I might as well skip my workout too... I'll start again on Monday...

This year, with the help of Mike and Jen combined with the positivity of the other bootcampers, I'm confident that I can stay motivated and avoid the holiday weight gain phenomenon. How great would it be to go home for Christmas weighing a few pounds less than last year? Not only would it be great, but it will be great!

This is the first time I've been looking forward to Monday. Hopefully I'll meet a bunch of new people with similar goals. Can't wait!
