That is the question… sometimes I don’t know the answer to that – hahahaha! Well, here is the update for last week: Monday’s workout was new, different, and fun! We went to Wildwood Park and worked out on a trail with different stations continuously until it was time to head home. I really enjoyed this variety of exercise except for the lovely mosquito bites that I received from being in the trees without spray – the price to pay I guess! There were certain stations I couldn’t do because of my abs but I just did more squats – yep, those babies better pay off!
Wednesday and Thursday I was unable to make it to workout – yes, first time ever in both fit for a cause competitions and I was truly bummed to not be there for my team but had family things come up that took priority. However, with or without me – the red team ROCKS! They won the weigh in again on Thursday (the third week in a row!) way to go RED! I really love the support, the cheers, the encouragement, and the team feeling that Red has! Love you guys! I have heard that the other teams are the same as well, everyone not only enjoying FFC2 but working together as a team! Accountability is a HUGE factor and having others going through this lifestyle change with you is an added bonus on making permanent changes!
Cheat days: yep, I had some. I never allowed those much last time but seem to at least once a week now – which I hear is o.k. however, the whole time I am thinking “oh, I need to work this off!” But this weekend I was able to go the fair with my hubby and children and had a BLAST and I am so proud of all of you that went and didn’t even eat the fair food – way to go! I can’t say that for myself… so I am hoping that it doesn’t make an impact on the scale when I weigh in this week – how do you enter that food on the body bugg? I just estimated a million calories – lol!
Sunday I had the opportunity to work the Kidstown International booth at the fair and must say had quite the experience! If you don’t know what Kidstown International is check out www.ffclegacy.com and look under fundraising. This is one of the organizations FFC is raising money for – and it will go to the orphans in Romania, Nepal, and India! Yes, my true heartbeat! I must say though it was interesting as we were asking people to donate pocket change or to sponsor a child. I had some wonderfully receptive, supportive, people who believe in helping children regardless of what country they live in. And then the few that said “they don’t even like kids”. How sad is that? Oh, my heart truly was saddened and I have found myself praying for those that are so closed off and cynical towards such efforts. I admit I used to question organizations and wonder where all the money ‘actually’ goes. The awesome thing about Kidstown is that 100% of the sponsorship money goes to the child you sponsor! Now that is a HUGE deciding factor for me! So check it out and possibly this is something you will feel prompted to hook up with and be a part of!
