This week has been one, that if any would bring me down, it would have been this week.  Thursday i came down with a cold, but like clockwork on friday I was at the gym not making any excuses for my stuffy head, and runny nose.  I took it a little easier, but i was there!

Then on Sunday dealing with grief, i made no excuses and showed up the nutrition class and salsa class.  This was truely the day that i would have normally turned to my good friends ben & jerry and asked them for comfort, but i didnt!

Gil is a great trainer and want to push us near but never over our limits.  On monday, one exercise we did, I figured I may regret it, but i had to tell him that i could handle a little more weight.  I know that the goal in all of this is to get healthy... and maybe even fit while we are at it.  Because of that, i had to push myself harder.  It also gave me no excuses and no right to complain...which i do genuinely like to do!

I hope that all of you are keeping your focus and keep your reasons for doing this close at heart.  I really is sometimes easier to make excuses, but one excuse always leads to another!  Keep up the hard work!

AND... GO RED TEAM!
