Day 5

August 10, 2012

Unbelieveable that we are on day 5 already.  It is crazy the amount of exercise that I have done and how I have been so completely satisfied with the meals here.

Today went on a 2 hour hike with Ramon.  Boy did we get some insight into the show and how things worked.  I have been to the brink of tears every waking moment while I have been here.  Its hard to describe.  The show as described by Ramon is really a reality show.  From start to finish and requires a great deal of committment and dedication.  My hat goes off to all contestant.

What has been so amazing is that Ramon and Jess are the two most remarakable people that I have met in a long time while at the same time they are just like me (also remarkable, lol)  I worked out with Jesse today and that make me so happy to be guided and encouraged and most importantly challenged by her.

We had some injuries today on the hike, the weather made things a bit slippery and we also had a couple of people leave.  Not sure of the reason but its a bit heartbreaking regardless the reason.  Alternatively we had many laughs today at the table as friendships continued to develop.

I have truly enjoyed every meal but one here, having said that today I found an exception, Committed to trying everything while I am here I did eat it.   It was followed by a dessert that I did like though:-)

Today my favorite trainer was off but she will be back on Sunday.
