Well we just started shooting Season 8 two days after Helen was crowned The Biggest Loser.  Didn't they all look so good that night.  It was so much fun and I can't believe it was 3 hours long!!!  The training that Jillian and I did in that little gym was fun but it was so sad that both girls didn't get chosen.  Erin is such a sweet girl.  I hope that she makes a change and Amanda is so great!!  I love her.  Kristen blew me away with that white hair and Filipe and Sione looked HOT!!!  Nicole was gorgeous….I could go on and on with everyone by name.  I just had a great time with all of them and Dane just went home way too soon.  After the show I went to meet everyone for a drink and it seemed like most everyone in the room was in some way related to Dane.  It cracked me up.  So now we are back shooting and this season we have a really great bunch of people.  We have a girl that is our biggest contestant EVER….476lbs.  She has such a big heart and a big drive.  She is going to do great!!  It is just so inspiring to start a new season because in the beginning there is no talk of game play or any of that other CRAP!  It is just a bunch of people that have decided to say, “Enough!!!!”  Enough of all the excuses.  Enough of all the complaining.  Enough of all the excess.  Enough of not relying on myself.  Enough of sabotaging my goals.  Enough of not loving and caring about myself.  ENOUGH!!!  Don't you feel the same way?  When you say to me that you are just not motivated or you have lost motivation or you just can't, I want you to think about a woman right now that weighs almost 500lbs and she is doing it.  She is beaten up and sore and she is just getting up and putting one foot in front of the other.  Gain motivation and inspiration from a soul like hers.  We can do anything that we put our minds too.  We can say to ourselves that when we feel that lack of motivation, it is just the old ways trying to creep back into our minds and sabotage the good that we are trying to do.  That is what it is.  People always, on a daily basis, ask me how to I stay motivated….how do I keep going?  I know it can be tough but this is a commitment and promise I made to myself to live a healthy and happy life.  Today I ask you to make that same promise to yourself.  Respect and love this body that God gave you and take good care of it.  Promise yourself….xoxo

First of all let me just say how much I love you guys and how we can use this outlet to reach out to each other and keep us all on track.  I know how hard it is to stay motivated and that is why I wanted to create mytrainerbob.  Reading all of your comments this morning regarding my blog yesterday has really touched me.  You guys really are getting my passion and determination to help people.  It is my main focus in life and most of all, it is my PURPOSE.  I was put here on this earth to help and inspire people to take charge of their lives and when I hear from all of you, it only fuels me even more.  I was talking to a very close friend about reaching out to people right now that might of fallen off track regarding the Challenges and I'm here to say that it is OK!!  Who cares if you found yourself missing a few days or a week.  Start back today.  I'm here and not going anywhere.  I'm here for you so today is a brand new day and you can start the Challenge now.  Whenever you feel like you have gotten side tracked for whatever reason, know that you have the power to start again, TODAY.  It is all about being in the present and letting the past die every minute.  You have no control of what has already happen or when is yet to happen but you do have all the power right now and that is the most important so PLEASE look at yourself in a mirror today and tell yourself, “I'm Ready!  I'm worth starting over and I don't care how many times I have fallen, I'm picking myself up TODAY!!”  I hope that you have a great and positive day today.  I hope that you get your challenge done today.  I hope that you make HEALTHY food choices today and MOST OF ALL, I hope that you find that inner resolve that we all have to make a difference for yourself today….I have all the faith in you!!!!
