Sunday August 5--Last Week-Learning Preperation

To those of you whom have e-mailed me I am very sorry for not writing sooner. When I left you all Aaron had joined me for a week on my journey. It was a rough week for both of us. Aaron worked out amazingly hard and I was very impressed with his effort. I also learned something about him. He can be on time especially early in the morning....lol. I on the other hand have had continued problems with my shoulder. It is progressivly getting worse and I realize that I will need to eventually have it fixed. The trainers have been very good at working me out and being cognizant of my pain. They have been creative and have still found a way to bust my ass. This past weekend a dear friend got married so I flew in to Chatanooga and laid low. I brought my meals and arranged for my personal trainer to meet me Saturday morning for a great workout. While there we set up my schedule for my return. After the wedding there was a large contingincy going out to Downtown Chattanooga and although I wanted to go I knew that my place was in my bed as I had a 5:45am flight back to boot camp and I wanted to be well rested. I have had the tools but now I have gotten more. I will be ready when I go home. What I have learned is the need for preperation and planning as it is when I do not plan for my eating and when I get too hungry I eat poorly. As I enter this last week I will work as hard as I can as the numbers do mean alot to me but not as much as I have learned mentally. This week my partner Clair will be joining us for the week. He seems to feel as if this will be a walk in the park....little does he know. Again thanks for all the support.
