Hello!

First things first. I am waiting till tomorrow to weigh. But they did my measurements this morning and I lost 10 inches total!! Its working! I lost 3 inches off my waist and 3 off my chest. Some off my legs. And I gained 3/4 of an inch on my biceps! So that is awesome. And even through all the pain and hurts I am feeling stronger.

Sorry for not posting anything for a couple days. Whew I cant believe how busy I am here. Last weekend was good. Went snowshoeing on Saturday. Amazing how difficult it was. It was powder which was up to my waist in most places. I was beat the rest of the weekend after that. The view weather was a little rough so the pics didnt turn out that great, dont worry we are going again this Thursday! I will take plenty of pics. Saturday night we all went to a movie and just chilled.

Sunday I found a cool little pentecostal church, it was amazing, just the worship I was looking for. Didn't know anyone there but felt totally connected into Gods community.

Was suppose to meet up with some friends I had made the previous week and do some snowboarding, but there were unable to make it. So I went by myself! It was awesome. Such a lower body workout, I still hurt from it! The weekend was very good. Had some slow quiet times also.

This week has been rough so far, starting with a minor foot injury yesterday which is starting to really piss me off! They thought it may have been a fracture even, but turns out it is just strained muscles. And now today that ankle is locking up on me. But I am working through it. Praise God that it isn't something that is going to slow me down. They have people here that stretch me before and after every workout. This week is rough because the workouts are getting more intense. I'm pushing myself as hard as I can though. And it always feels great after (even with the pain!)

We start every morning with 70 mins of intense weight training. And I mean intense, we all lay on the floor and pant and cry after, I'm not joking! Then we eat breakfast, take a break to stretch and cool off. Then onto cardio intervals for 70 mins. Which is where you alternate for 5 mins at a time. Switching from low intensity to high intensity. Really jumping your heart rate up and down. Then we eat a snack and take a break. I sit in the hot tub to loosen everything up. Otherwise I have found out that I will lock up in my legs and back. Then we eat lunch and get ready for our third workout of the day. Which is normally abs and core workout, which I have come to despise. Thats the one that makes people barf. After that I am completely spent. I drink a protein shake and take a 1 hour nap. Sometimes I don't even make it to my bed. The couch in the lobby of the main building knows me well now. Then after dinner we do 2 more hours of cross training and cardio.

Thats pretty much a day in my life right now. There are some cool people here. And I'm laughing a lot. And crying some too. The cramps are the worst, but they are starting to subside now that my body is getting the right food and nutrients.


Miss you all. Thanks for the prayers!
