When we all start 12wbt we do it usually with one thing in mind and that is to shed those kg's and to fit into those size 10 or 12 jeans. But you know what on Saturday night i realised there is way more to 12wbt than just strippig back the layers of flab and producing the best version of yourself. I have lost my kg but gained so much more. I realised that 12wbt isnt just a diet it is a program that produces a tonne of support and brings people together from all walks of life in all different stages of their own journey and makes life long friends..During round 2 this year i became forum firends with two very special and inspiring people #imajica #Leitchy i had never met these two people before only on the forums. We chatted and supported each other throughout the 12 weeks both on the forums and private message.. We were all on our own journey and all quite different journeys. But all with the same main goals. On friday night the perth grew put together a pre finale get together at a bar. When i arrived waiting outside for me was imajica (patrick) with welcoming arms like he had been my friend for years. When the two of us walked into the bar leitchy aka greg and his lovely wife walked straight up to me. i finally got to put a face to the cyber names. Then at Finale the three of us with our partners celebrated the round together as though we had known each other for years. What im trying to say here i think is that this program goes deeper than just a weight loss journey amd a journey of self discovery. The support and friends ships are over whelming. .During my journey of self discovery i have got so much more out of it I have found life long friends in 12wbt from different parts of australia that i would never of had the chance to meet. Below are two pics one of myself and my daughter with greg and myself and my daughter with patrick. two people that before saturday night i had never met before. |
This morning i feel from the effort of yesterdays training. On the 28th of October a group of 4 of us our participating in the 30ks kakoda Challenge Over Mount Dandenong, So yesterday we did our first big training session or it. We did 20ks of the 30k walk. During the challenge they give you 9 hours to compete the challenge and yesterday our fantastic team completed 20ks in just under 5 hours. Got to be happy with that. Leg burn like i have never felt leg burn before. The hills were a killer but the weather was kind and this morning my legs are definately letting me now they are alive and didnt agree with the torture i pervailed on them yesterday. But in the Kakoda spirit the 4 of us completed our mission for the day. I bit confused though lol helen and I wore our polars and she burnt 500 cal more than I what is that. All in all a great day with great friends. A BIT ABOUT KAKODA CHALLENGE MELBOURNE On sunday 28th of Octo...
