OPERATION: Go Commando
The Team at BLC have thrown me the challenge of all challenges! They were so keen on helping me hit another amazing milestone, that they've thrown down the gauntlet, and I simply could not say no!
Team BLC have challenged me to get into double figures (my elusive double figures!!), down to 95kgs, by the season finale of Biggest Loser Families - and my reward.... I GET TO MEET COMMANDO STEVE!
Ohhhhh yes you heard right!!! *Faint, drool, swoon, convulse*.... !!!!! You bet!
Now, whilst you may think this is an "easy challenge" - let me assure you it is NOT!
I have about 7 weeks to drop 10 kilos - and let me tell you that my body does NOT perform well under pressure!! I average half a kilo a week, and that just ain't gonna cut it!!
Not once in my past three years have I had a "scheduled loss" - irrespective of how well I've performed, how good I've been and how well all my numbers have tallied up - and never have I had a series of perfect losses in a row!!
To say I'm somewhat nervous about this challenge is an understatement - given that Team BLC have decided to include you ALL in on the secret and there's lots of eyes watching my every move!!! (EEK!)
HOWEVER - I am one very lucky Miss over here. Team BLC have organised gym access AND a PT at CityFit in Bathurst for me, AND have arranged a program to help generate the results I need! Challenge aside, how awesome are THEY?!
... and you guys get to stay in the loop! There'll be regular updates with my progress, I'll let you in on some of my highs and lows, keep you updated with my other challenges (I have a few up my sleeves too!) - and if you so feel inclined, jump on board and DO THIS WITH ME! Let's see if we can kick some kilos butt in the next couple of months - together!! (check out the BLC webby for details!)
So, enough chit chat! Operation: Go Commando is ON!
Now, I'm off to get myself geared up for a BIG week ahead... Double figures here I come!!!!
(WOOHOOOOOOOO!!!)
You will do it Amy I have a lot of faith in you achieving anything you set your mind to do and well done on the challenge from BLC.It is good that they are giving back to you for a change , you have been with them for 3 years now so its the least they could do. I look forward to reading your blogs and you should turn it into a book im sure it would be a best seller.
ReplyDeleteJean:)
OMG Commando *drool* how lucky are you!! YOU CAN DO IT!! After reading your whole blog, I KNOW you can achieve all you sent out to achieve! and with the commando as the prize... omg!! :D
ReplyDeleteYou lucky, lucky, soon to be even littler lady!! You are incredible and we are all behind you 100% - we'll get you there. Respect your body, respect yourself, feel the fear & do it anyway!
ReplyDeletePS love love love love love love the banner for this post. Your commando pose almost makes me swoon (but sorry, I'm still leaning in the Commando's direction) ;) xx
GO YOU!!!
ReplyDeleteBoy they are SO lucky to have you Amy!
It's been a long haul, but it's really starting to pay off for you now. Your own PT eh? I'd love one of those.
If anyone should be part of the team it's you. xxx
Bahahahaha Kate!!! Couldn't help myself...!! ;) (and it's ok, I don't mind you leaning his way - it's only natural after all?!!!)
ReplyDeleteAnd THANK YOU so much ladies for all the support and kind words - am SO appreciative of you all!!!
xx
If there's anyone in the world who could do this challenge, it's you. You've already done so much, and I know everyone on the BLC forums and here are behind you 100%! Congratulations on everything you've done so far, can't wait to see your achievement!
ReplyDeleteYeah baby. Loving your life right now. You now have the best motivation you could want, Commando.. Faint, drool, swoon, convulse*.... Sorry stole your words. lol. I know you can do this my sweet, you have all of us behind you. Loving the Commando pose too. Is that one of your self portraits??? You know I'm behind you 100% of the way. Love ya heaps, Jules.
ReplyDeleteSelf-portraits-R-Us... hehehe! Yup, you should have seen me trying to do that with the stupid self-timer on the camera!!! I'm a photographer, and self-timers are nothing but ANNOYING!
ReplyDelete.... couldn't help myself though! ;)
I suspect we have a heap more faith in you than you do. I am certain you will get there. Wow.
ReplyDelete12 seconds is all I get on my camera. How's a girl supposed to pose in that time. You did well.
ReplyDeleteI just got an email about this! OMG, how exciting! You can do it Amy! I can't believe they organised a PT and a program and everything. To tell you the truth, hun, if they've devised a plan that'll drop you that 10kg in 7 weeks that's a pretty amazing bonus right there - you were so determined to crack that! Maybe this is what all those amazing 2+kg losses have been about the last couple of weeks ;-) Go Amy, you little star.
ReplyDeleteOhhh IF ONLY those crazy 2+kgs losses were to do with this!!! Here's the insider goss about THAT!
ReplyDeleteI threw a MAJOR spanner in the works when those happened (out of the blue - they really did come out of nowhere!) as initially, it was challenged I just get into "double figures". Because of those two bloody losses (nearly 4.5kgs in two weeks!) they've now raised the bar to drop nearly 10kgs in 7 weeks (from my starting point NOW), my target being 95kgs! EEK!!! I can only hope, NOW (post insane losses) that there's still some crazy movement left in the tank!!!! It's VERY rare for my body to drop such big numbers - even rarer that I can follow them up consistently! (I usually falter for a few weeks after...eek eek eek!)
... either way, stubbornness will certainly see to it that I don't give up that easily..!!!!!
;)
YOU WILL DO IT MISS AMY .. I KNOW U WILL.. LOOK HOW FAR YOU HAVE COME...YOU ARE ONE AMAZING GIRL....GIVE ME A SHOUT IF YOU NEED ME TO HELP TRAIN WITH U ... IM SOOO UP FOR IT HUGS TO YOU AND I CANT WAIT TO SEE PHOTOS OF THE NEW 95KILO YOU STADNING NEXT TO THE HUNKY COMMANDO ...OH I AM SWOONING ALREADY ..LOL XXXXXX
ReplyDeleteHow cool is all this !!! Love the matching poses with Commando. We are so proud of you and with you all the way. It is a testament to your fortitude that through the last year, when circumstances have been at some of the most challenging, you have stuck to your goals and now you are receiving some well-deserved recognition too :-) POWER ON !!!!
ReplyDeleteLove you, M & D xxx
Congratulations! Love the logo, too!
ReplyDeleteYou'll do it, and you'll have all of us cheering you on!
You are so AWESOME ... you WILL smash this .. in fact its my prediction you will go far lower than the 95kgs .. I reckon you will hit the 90kg mark ... you have been smashing the weigh ins the last few weeks .. bring on the finale :-)
ReplyDeleteGood god woman, don't add to my stress!!!! bahahahaha!!! I'll be lucky to do five I reckon!!! :P :P
ReplyDeleteJust think of the consistent 2-4kg losses the BL contestants have each week on the show, even after initial big losses have stopped. If anyone can help you, these pros can. And I'm sure if you're struggling they'll adjust the program for you. Plus you've got so much love coming at you right now, how can you possibly fail? lol. We just won't allow it :-P
ReplyDeleteGood luck Amy - with all that support behind you and your own motivation - you are going to smash it out of the park.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your amazing success so far and Good Luck for this incredible challenge.
Go you :)
I'd just about do ANYTHING to have dinner with Commando. I wouldn't invite any friends though ;)
ReplyDeleteGood luck Amy, we're here with you on the journey.
Actually, why am I wishing you luck? It's got nothing to do with luck... :P So go get em, girl!
