Appreciation

Hello family and friends. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for all the tremendous support you are giving me. This life changing journey has just begun but it is a change for the better and will be for the rest of my life.

I have realized that I have been abusing my body for so many years and why is it that we take better care of our material possessions while ignoring our health.

The 4 days that I spent in San Antonio at our Fit Camp was so emotional and overwhelming. Especially to hear the stories of my fellow contestants, and now friends! We shared some very personal stories and many that we had kept inside for many years. Amazing how strong of bonds we built in such a short time. (Miss and love you guys)

I will be blogging my journey several times each week and will be sharing my program that i will design such as my meals, exercise and strength training. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions and join me during any of my workouts. I will be having a different variety of workouts (ie. walking, jogging, bicycling, swimming, zumba, water zumba, stretching bands, Gold’s Gym), so that it will be fun and not boring along the way, which was a problem in my many other attempts of losing weight. Please let me know if there is something that you enjoy doing and I may tag along. I will be organizing some community activities and will be sharing them here on my blog so that you may participate if you would like.

All 25 contestants were assigned a team color and mine is burnt orange. (Sorry to my Aggie friends) So feel free to wear that color in support if you would like. GO TEAM RUBY!
