The weekend was great here. They give us more free time and I had a chance to see the island a bit. It's so pretty here. It rains everyday, that's why it's so green and lush. I have been working out like a machine but feel so good. I had a surprise today. One of my old friends from Culinary School showed up today. Javier. It is so good to see him. It's been 15 years since I've seen him. He will be here for 2 weeks. Small world...
I have some great news. I have lost 12 pounds already! WOW! I already feel different. The program here is incredible, the people are awesome and I am making life long friends already.
It's so good because no matter what size they are, we are all here to make a healthy lifestyle change. There is support coming from everywhere it's amazing! I have been tired but invigorated as well. I love my accommodations and at night I get time to work on school work and blog. The days go by so fast it's amazing. I am getting used to the exercise now and some what look forward to breaking a good sweat.
I have been hungry the last few days and they say it's because my metabolism is speeding up. So I have been drinking lots of water and dealing with it. The food here is amazing and fulfilling.
If I have changed this much in a week, I can't even imagine what it's going to be like in another three weeks. I am not just talking about weight loss either. Talk about self-esteem building, it's everywhere. Yesterday a friend told me I was Miss Popularity and I am an inspiration to many. Wow, just me being me. It's amazing how much ones life can change so quickly, with the right tools.
I am truly blessed and I am in love with life again.
Much Love,
Shanna
That's my girl. The life of the party. I cannot wait to see your smile, I have missed it. Jen
