I'M BACK!!!!!!!!!!

For the last 12 days I've been sick........... and........yep, I'm still sick. During this past week I've still been strict about my calorie counting but I took a break from the workouts (aside from walking). That was in an attempt to get my body to rest and recuperate but it was VERY hard. I had a couple people holding me accountable, telling me I literally "could not" work out. I'm thankful for those people.
One thing that is not super awesome is that I lost more weight this week than I did the weeks when I'm working out. HOWEVER...I felt like CRAP emotionally and physically all week and I missed my workouts like crazy.

Even though I'm only about 90% functioning, I am going to go to boot camp tomorrow. Tomorrow is the start of the 90 Day Challenge (with a $1,000 grand prize!). I posted details about the challenge in an earlier post but essentially, you set a personal goal, work out at boot camp AT LEAST 3 times a week, hand in weekly food logs and meet with the trainers. Everyone who completes these goals will have their name in a raffle, if your name is drawn, you win.
For me, I feel like I need to take these next 90 days to challenge myself even further beyond the 90 Day Challenge. I already KNOW that I can work out as much as is required and I know I will be able to meet a personal goal (I've had a lot of practice over the year :)), but I want to push myself.
Tomorrow, I'm meeting with Rob, my trainer, to talk about what my personal goal could be. I know that he'll help me pick something that challenges me personally and doesn't allow me to just go through the motions. When I meet with him tomorrow we are also getting our weight and measurements and body fat analysis so that we know where we're starting from so that we can track our progress. I think I can do a lot of changing in 90 days, I see it happen every 90 days so I'm excited to enter this challenge!
