Sorry yall...life has been kinda crazy lately.

So last week was week 8 of Bootcamp...4 more left. hard to believe. It has gone so frickin fast. I really and truly dont want it to end. I'm nervous about it ending I guess cause then it's all on me ya know? Well I guess it has all been on me this whole time but I guess it's that all the hype and stuff will be over and we will be on our own. I am hoping that we will continue to have support and a connection to Ben and Erica and Lisa and each other. The journey wont be over for me when the 12 weeks are done...this is just the beginning.

Last week was also my grad school weekend. Three weekends a semester I go to UVM for a Master's program. I am one weekend away from completing my first year! Just 2 more to go and I will have my master's in education with a concentration in math. Yeah I know...some of you are probably saying, MATH???Yuck. But its a great program and I am learning math that I have never done before and can apply to the classroom. Sometimes I think I'm nuts for taking on the things that I do but I function better under pressure. Maybe thats why I like Bootcamp so much:) So anyway, I went away for grad school last Thursday through Saturday, so I missed a couple of Bootcamp sessions and Metabolism class but I packed ALL of my food for when I would be gone, snacks and meals. I am very happy to say that I only ate my food and didnt indulge in anything that may have been tempting me. Everyone kept saying, "Man I dont know how you do it." And I guess I feel like I HAVE to do it. I didnt work my butt off for the last 8 weeks just to blow it one weekend. That's how I look at it anyway.

This week starts week 9 and week 2 of Warp Speed. It took awhile to get used to the Warp Speed but MAN has it been paying off! 10lbs in a week and a half...yeah I'll take that! I feel like it is just what we were doing the first 7 weeks but cranked up a notch. It is much more strict but the food is good. Again, each week that passes reminds me that we are that much closer to the end and it makes me a bit sad but I know I have to just keep pushing through. Week 12 will be here before we know it and I am determined to get the most out of it!

More later....I promise
