#12WBT Round 3 - Let's begin!

I just finished the #12WBT Round 2.

I found that once I got my confidence up, after 32 days of blogging - that it became harder to blog.

Maybe my stabiliser/training wheels came off my bike.

I could not believe how much more confident and less scared I became to go to the gym!

Now - everyone there knows me, at least all the personal trainers.

My biggest compliment was the manager of the gym said, 'You are an inspiration.  You managed to do your 12WBT workout no matter what challenges you were facing.'

That to me made it awe-inspiring.

I am committed to keep training and losing the weight, which is why I joined Round 3.

I am still completely amazed at what I can accomplish and although I still have 15 kilos to lose, I'm very comfortable with the gym equipment and my ability to be able to focus.

That's not to say that it's not hard or not a challenge - it is!

But what is remarkable to me, never being much of a gym person (not at all!!), that by doing the 12WBT, I have seen a surprising mental transformation in myself when it comes to exercise and fitting it into my new life.

As I start Round 3, I have to thank Michelle Bridges and her fantastic team at 12WBT for changing my perspective.

Awesome guys!

Hope to make the finale this time.  Relieved it's Sydney, where it's easier to get to!

Hugs.
