Hi Guys
Firstly thanks soooo much for your commitment to make things work.. I know it’s your business but you do go that extra mile to ensure we get the best from the whole experience and the aftercare that is offered is a bonus too.
When I booked on to the boot camp I have to say I didn't really know what to expect I thought that I had a good level of fitness and although I didn't expect it to be easy I didn't expect it to be anywhere near as hard as I first found it. I wanted to lose weight, not lots but my last 7 pounds of baby weight and thought a camp may kick start and help me get out of the bad habits I had allowed myself to fall in to. It was hard - I have never been more physically exhausted in my entire life ....and that's even after a 30 hour labour when I had my kid!
I did waiver on my second day ...the sickness shocked me ...but it was all a learning experience....i realised that I had developed a mechanism somewhere in my life that didn't allow me to reach my full potential ....it was of course me, not allowing me, but I had these barriers and here there were again...in the form of sickness ...and me allowing it to hold me back and blame it to stop me trying to achieve my goals. The support of the girls in my lodge was fantastic and to see them carrying on, battling through the pain and still laughing made me decide to stay. I am so happy I did.
Coach, you are a great guy, but hey you know that already....you have found and are following your mission in life and I respect that very much, but your not a weird spaced out hippy and it makes it all the mind stuff easier to accept and enjoy ...most of all, you believe in what you are doing and you are inspiring and positive and good to be around. You cleared us out...or sorry, taught us how to give our selves permission or allow ourselves to stop taking on the negatives in life and start enjoying life. I feel like you have shown me how to allow myself to be happy. I didn't know how before, but you guided me and I discovered it was with me all along!
Staff T, you are a little sweetie, no blood in your veins...yeah, yeah. You were good to listen to with your nutritional knowledge and to see your own commitment to healthy eating. Your variation on exercises is all stuff I have taken home and am using in the gym etc so its all helping my maintenance routine.
The objective I came with; to lose weight - I now know was not the purpose for my visit. - BOOT CAMP found Rachael and Rachael found out who Rachael is. I'm eternally grateful to you guys...I don't need to wish you success...you will always be successful because you believe in what you do ....life law number xxxx??? Ha-ha.
Your course is tough, and at times especially at the start it felt like you guys weren't on our sides, but of course that's all part of your plan....comfort - discomfort...its an emotional journey and its impossible to explain to people now that I'm back and in fact I don't want to explain to most ...it's my little personal secret. It’s much more than I ever expected...in a good way.
I learnt to love myself. I am happy to be alive and I am happy to be me. If I want anything I know I will get it. As long as I have self belief, I can ....I will...
I started at 10.9 at camp left only at 10.6 but I have been home a few days - Tuesday now and am 10.1 now ...I am so chuffed!! Been in the gym everyday, doing morning runs and even got my 5 year old on 20 chews (she says it’s boring!!!).
GOOD LUCK WITH EVERYTHING YOU DO. I may be back next year!!
