The Biggest Winner

Hi everyone

I want to welcome you all to my blogsite. I will definitely try to update this web journal a few times a week with some of my thoughts, pictures and news of my latest news.

It has been a hectic week so far. All of that hard work seems so distant now. And the final show was surreal and having so many people come up to you and congratulate you is really amazing. The competition has been very tough and there were moments when I almost threw in the towel, but I was determined to not just lose the weight but also to win the competition. And let me tell you what you see on TV is not everything that happens. Everyone worked really hard. And for many of us it was a struggle.

A lot of people come up to me and congratulate me on such a fantastic achievement but off course like any success story, there are people who will go out of their way to make you feel bad or knock you down but one thing you can’t do is get caught up in other people’s negative thoughts. I keep reminding myself why I entered the house. And it was for me. I was unhappy and I saw this as a chance to win this battle. And as the competition went on I realized that I stood a good chance of doing well which kept me motivated.

Off course everything is easier in the house where you can concentrate 100% on working out and eating correctly. You have the trainers and the producers and off course the camera on you all the time. So it is easier. The other competitors keep you motivated by also being so committed. It was wonderful seeing how committed and dedicated everyone was and it definitely helped keep me focused.

I will be interviewed by Daron Mann on Radio Algoa’s breakfast show so please tune in. I would like to hear your feedback on my interview.

If there is any information you would like please feel free to leave a message or email me.
