...and I WON!!! After 10 weeks of cutting sugar, dairy and grains out of my diet, working out 4x a week, pushing through my brutal benchmark workouts, Fran and Grace, and winning the overall popular vote of my peers I came out on TOP! Can you freaking believe it! It has been over a week since I heard the news and it is still blowing me away. I don't win things like this, people who are athletic, beautiful, smart win but not me. . . Wait a second I did win and dang it I am feeling athletic, beautiful, smart, confident, dedicated and so many other things. It is an amazing feeling! My heart was pounding harder the night of the announcement when I didnt have to lift a single pound vs the day I had to walk into the gym and try to conquer Fran. Which I am proud to announce I improved 100% on. What a great feeling. Sorry I know I keep saying it but I want to shout it from the roof tops.
Before and After
So many have been wondering "What did you do with your winnings?"
1) I bought my self a much deserved CFED T-Shirt.
2) I took my self out for an amazing bun/cheese less bison burger with onions, mushrooms, and bacon from Ted's.
3) I order the Alabama National Championship Sweatshirt I promised myself.
4) I order Mark's Daily Apples New Primal Cookbook
5) I signed up for the Whole 9 Workshop at Crossfit East Decatur on May 8th
6) I tuck everything else away for a rainy day!
Here is to a life altering 10 weeks!
Thanks to all my friends and family for all their support and love!
Can't wait to continue to share my fitness journey with you.

ReplyDeleteThanks Cate for your kind words and all you support over the past few months! I love having you in my life =)
ReplyDeleteLauren, it's so inspiring! I love reading this, even a few weeks after the event. Your ability to focus on your goals and go after them (and really do it) is something to admire and try to imitate, emulate, whatever the best word is. Also, love the things you spent on, great!
