KABELOs NEW BOOTCAMP REALITY SHOW 2013

Hello, ladies!
 
 
I was called and emailed on Thursday, invited to the auditions of Kabelo's Bootcamp. It is a new show that targets overweight individuals both males and females. It will air on a new DSTV channel from the 01st July 2013. For now they are busy choosing, evaluating and preparing the 10 contestants until the show begins.
 
On Friday. I had a meeting with my employer requesting to be released and be part of this awesome weight loss challenge program for a period of 3months together with all the other days they will need to make me go through psychometric tests with medical consultations will all professionals who are part of this program.
 
Unfortunately, my manager rejected this requests reminding me that I just came back from two years of study leave for my Masters and therefore should continue serving for that time instead of asking for another leave of absence on top of that one. Moreover, she just has made me act in a senior management position so my absence will not only affect my current section but will also affect the second one I am acting in.
 
My boss really kinda made sense but I am honestly very much hurt that today I could not go and explore this awesome opportunity as well as the next coming 3months that could have changed my life through weight loss.
 
I need to lose this weight this year especially my targeted 40kgs and I know if I went for auditions today they were definitely gonna take me to be part of the show. Who wouldn't take this fabulosity really???? Lol.  
 
I have been mopping and moaning all weekend and my flu got even worse with hurt and frustration that I am not even going for the auditions as well. This bootcamp was really gonna be my platform to show the entire world that anything is possible and great things surely do happen to anyone in due time ofcoz.
 
All we need to have is faith. Faith that is partially present to me right now as I have been stoked and joyful ever since I was invited to participate. I was already even imagining exercising with theee KABELO (from TKZee) himself as he is the fitness ambassador (also known as Minister of Fitness).
 
I am so bitter because all I need is the intensity of this program and other candidates in a similar position  to support each other to lose this weight and acquire long term skills to keep the weight off through healthy eating and exercise education that they are offering.
 
Out of misery and anger I went back to my Zumba today just dancing my stress away.  I guess the plan from now on is just to dance my butt off and go with the same pace of the contestants from the show and just make myself feel like I am part of it with all of them.
 
So, to all of you ladies: I guess I need to start being serious and be a living proof this time that losing weight is possible only if the mind is in good state and also sustain consistency which needs a lot of courage to continue and move forward. I guess ill milk my courage from all of you when you are cheering me up to move forward. Please do help with that (cheering and suggestions).
 
So please help me to help others.

 
 
Until next time ladies: exercise, exercise and eat healthy - it is a right thing for you :)

Keeping Fit Whilst Embracing One's Curves

When I came across this picture on Thick Females Are Beautiful it reminded me how important it really is to keep fit even if we celebrate our curves. I feel so guilty because I have not been to the gym this entire week. My excuse would be that, i was having a busy week with my Research Project but is this excuse good enough to keep me away from the gym facility? I certainly dont think so. It is sadening as well when I think of all the crap I have been shoving down my throat this entire week. When I am stressed out and under pressure I tend to eat more than usual (thats constant snacking on savoury snacks as I dont have a sweet tooth). I have been eating my Lite and Easy food package However, now that im recalling ... I actually managed to sneak in some chicken wings and packet of barberque Shapes Biscuits and more ofcoz :( So, how do I redeem myself from this bad habit of ending up toping my healthy diet with rubbish???? Please help!!! Its not like I enjoy the things I endup eating instead I just become disgusted and left feeling with guilt moreover unhappy. I guess, I a writing this essay because I am feeling guilty and I am seeking to get my control back because at the moment I feel powerless. Going to Fitness First will be my 1st step tomorrow morning. I would be happy if you can give your advice as well. Tulz*
