Day 7 - And on the seventh day she...

Today I got up early for breakfast and to see all my new friends off that were leaving. Sorry to see them go! I did get some free shampoo and conditioner out of the deal - heehee. Thanks Diana. I will miss everyone.
Then I got my sack lunch and was SUPER stoked because it was almond butter and jelly sandwiches and I am the QUEEN of peanut butter and jelly. I could have eaten 2 or 3. (they were small)
I hung around an weighed in. They say to wait until you leave to weigh in so you can see your total results and not get upset. I lost 6 pounds!!! Nothing to get upset about.
Then I took a nap zzzzz and ran to the store for tea. I do not like the tea selection they have here. I got Lipton Bavarian Wild Berry - very yummy. I am glad my dad left his Thermos behind it comes in handy for my tea.
I came back to 2,000 Harley's that were here for a Love Ride to raise money for autism. Robby Krieger of The Doors played.

I talked to several friends on Skype and then tried to get my mom on but her password wouldn't work. I will try again tomorrow.
I walked around and welcomed all the new people I could. I know everyone was nice to me on my first day so I wanted to pay it forward.
That was when I saw Dr. H from the Biggest Loser.

At dinner Inga came up with an ice breaker and John and Bob and I played along. We asked to be first in the introductions and Bob and John and I went first to set the tone. Then Inga started to speak and sincerely told everyone to dig deep down and ask themselves "Do you want it, do you want it, do you really really want it?" Then the 3 of us jumped up and yelled "We want it, we want it, we really really want it!" It was hysterical. Some of the repeat guests chanted with us. It was great. GO INGA!
That chant is from a class here so sort of an inside joke. heehee

Did I mention I lost 6 pounds AND got peanut butter and jelly?

Tomorrow is assessment day for hiking. I am going to try electrolytes in my water and see if that gives me the boost I am looking for.
