Biggest Loser: Week 9 or 10

I am a bit late with the last post of the Biggest Loser... and the challenge was 10 weeks but according to blogger I am on week 9... so I don't know where week 9 went...but the challenge is DONE! 

How did I do? ... FABULOUS!  I lost 8.6 lbs or 5.13% of my body weight!  I was the biggest loser on my team.  Wooo hoo!  That last week I lost .6 lbs.   I wish it would have been more, but I won't let that cloud my great accomplishment!

As I changed into my work out clothes right before the final weigh in, this game/fight song was on the radio in the locker room.  I don't know the song and I've tried asking people by humming it, but no one knows what I am talking about... anyways, I felt like a fighter getting ready to go out there!

I am so glad I joined this challenge, it has really helped me change my views on the gym, working out, and on people.  I use to feel very intimidated, but now not so much.  I can't say that I am a gym rat, but at least I am not "afraid" of going in now.

I plan to continue watching what I eat and only splurging once a week.  Also, I hope to continue to work out at least 2/3 times a week.  So far it hasn't gone so well because of work, but I hope not to lose all the lessons learned.  Even after the chanllenge adrenaline leaves me I hope to keep the lessons.  BUT if not, I will always have "pretty blessed" to remind me.
