Week 1 Down and Now in the midst of Week 2

If I haven't done it yet...I would just like to take a minute to express how hooked I am on FXB!! I didn't think it would happen...believe me after the first few days of soreness in my body...I thought there is no way I am going to make it....but low and behold...I am now in my 2nd week...and I love it! I tease my coach Erin...and Dave, Jenny and Mark...that they are all evil...but evil in a good way!! They are whooping my butt into shape! And by the way...if you picture someone who ticked you off...picture their face right on the bag on kickboxing day...relieves sooooo much stress!!! Not that I'm encouraging you to knock someone out...but everyone can daydream a little can't they??!!??!! :)

Here's my first little success story...I had a family reunion over the weekend at my uncle's house. My uncle has a few horses and I thought, "...well that would be fun...maybe I'll get to ride. Wait...I will never get my fat butt up on that horse....maybe he has the little steps to help....".
As I am standing there looking at just how high that stirrup was...I thought...no way...but I have to try it without the steps! So, I stuck my foot in the stirrup...swung my leg over and just like that I was on the horse (the horse doesn't have a name yet, otherwise I wouldn't keep calling him "the horse"...but that story is for another day). I was so impressed with how easy it was to get up there...and I KNOW that it's because I am my flexible, lighter and let's face it...getting on the horse is kind of like doing a "roundhouse" kick! Thank you FXB!!!!!

It may seem silly...but believe me...I feel better, my clothes are fitting better...and I'm actually in a better mood. I think it's because I am actually relieving some stress everyday...and the best part...it's only 6 days a week...on the 7th day...eat whatever you want...and no workout...shoot...even I can commit to something 6 days a week as long as I know there's a giant pizza waiting for me on the 7th day!!!

Call and get signed up for the next class....you can do it!!! I am!!!!

Hey Alisha, Congratulations on getting to the second week. I feel bad now cause I rode my daughters horse the other day and I used a 5 gallon bucket as a step so I could get on the horse. Guess I should be at Extreme Body Shaping too. Keep up the good work and thanks for keeping us posted. One more thing, Can you have some of these other people post a few comments too, I don't want to be the only one posting comments. Thanks
