Back to the Blog…. Accomplishments and A Motivated Friend Later
I haven’t been able to blog for the last week and I feel like a part of me has been missing, I really have enjoyed keeping my progress posted through this thing, and believe it or not what they say is true, if you write it you will achieve it and it keeps you honest!
The past week along with this week are extremely busy in my world of newspaper, always as football begins it gets hectic around my small office trying to keep up with all the local news that seems to start pouring in. Because of that same reason I tend to have to shuffle my workout and diet around to work within my bounds which totally throws me off for a week at least. But this week as I face the second week of the madness I think I have adjusted some of that to work around the busy hours so I am BAAACK!!
Last week amidst all the crazy times I am extremely happy to report that I have two big announcements the first being I finally after 4 years of waiting have become official with my second freebie job, blogging for a pro sports team, earning my credentials for all the games and gaining my press and parking pass!! yippee!!! i nearly did cartwheels when I found out!! Then the second, I was able to use all the things I have been doing and make a connection with someone special to help out a local family which found their son was diagnosed with leukemia last week. Our community had banded together but I managed to put together a special project above and beyond that to really help motivate him, a visit from a nfl player… so excited about that…!!! It will make his life.
I think those reasons along with my overwhelming job responsibilities really justify my blogging absence but like I said before I am back!!
During my absence I also found time to go to the Europa!! It was awesome! Lots of fun stuff going on at the show, and I took a friend who is yet to jump on the fitness wagon and I think it motivated her a little seeing all the foods and drinks that are available all in flavors that she could enjoy.
One of the stops that really turned her head was the Kay’s Naturals booth! I carry around the cereal as a pick me up when I need something with a little carb in it if I feel weak, not to mention the protein in a single serving is awesome pick me up anytime! She was astounded by how good the cereal and chips actually were and made the statement on the way home that had she have known healthy food would have been that good she would have been ordering it a long time! That made me so happy, she has struggled with her weight as long as I have known her coupled with a smoking and drinking habit it makes more than a few of us worry about her. She later asked me for the info as to where my hubby and I order our supplements and said she was interested in possibly getting information from us about some other things.
It really motivates me when I can see a friend who has seen my transformation and is inspired and then asks for help especially when I know how it feels to be the person on that side of the table not knowing what to do and being afraid to ask for help. Makes me happy to know I might be able to help her by doing the little things such as introducing her to new things which will help her change her eating and put her one step closer to the right direction!!
Also at the Europa we saw the the incredible hulk himself manning the Europa booth, WOW…. all I can say is my hubby and his workout partner were both jealous of not being there!! hehe…
Lots of free supplements including a different flavor of SuperPump 250 to try now so I am excited to this week get to start in on that and see how I like it so by the time I make my next order I might have something new to put on my list!
