What if I asked everyone I knew and got 1,000 people together to say "We want to watch Katy on the Biggest Loser!" while I ran a lap on a track holding a sign with Biggest Loser in large font? Is that too much? My ultra awesome sister, Wynn, is going to help me with my video, and I think we would be able to pull it off. Having Wynn's help is great due to the fact that video production is major part of what Wynn is studying in school. Plus, it would be awesome to invite her into this part of my life that I've hidden from my family for so long.
It's an audition video, and I am competing against at least 10,000 women just like me. The other thing that I have against me is that they are looking for families. All the people in my family are fit and healthy, so I have to work extra hard to get them to consider me as an independent applicant. It said on the website that independent applicants were also welcome, but I wonder if I could place an ad for an overweight surrogate family member just in case.
My other fear isn't really a fear; nevertheless, what if I lose too much weight while training at home for them to want me? I've already lost 9 pounds in 11 days, and I don't want to stop no matter how much I want to be on the show. I'm ready for change now. As I write this, I'm noticing the time. I'm missing my first class since I've started my routine. We have Harrison's birthday party today, and as much as I want to be with him on his big day, it's amazing how my body is craving action today and how much I miss the smell of chlorine and the feeling of cold water against my skin. Just one day.
Well, you have your first 3 out of 1,000 fans: David, Sheila, and me! (Okay, David and Sheila don't know yet, but they'll participate in your video enthusiastically I promise.)
ReplyDeleteBTW, I'm so impressed with your running! I already noticed a big difference between your run on Monday and your run on Wednesday. Your determination is evident and inspiring! GO KATY!
Much love,
Jamie
