Sign In to Show Your SupportInto week four of seven weeks. Three more weeks of the intense focus. Kidney function is being challenged and is requiring lot's of hydration to flush the system.
Weight dropped from 178 to 153. WOW! Alex wanted to bet on weight loss program. Marla said "it's gaming the system". Alex comments back "I haven't been at 153 since I was born".
Alex mindset is... Gut Check. No matter how hard... have to do it. Was panicking with thing down the throat and one part "you are going to die, get out". Another part saying "you got this, hold the course". It's the gut check moment of believing that part that says "you got this!" Hold the course and fist bump. Way to go!
If the gut check isn't enough then Alex walks the halls and see's how others have it so much worse.
"Of course, always have the place of walking down the hallway to see how bad others have it like the person with a missing ear, arm or leg" - Alex
