[great things]

Hi Nikki,

Sounds like you are doing well. That you found something that will work for you. Congrats on getting through the RFL... it must have been extra challenging having to carry ems part of the way. But, it'll be cool to tell her one day about her "first" RFL!

day 2 plan

shake
tetra
bar
cottage cheese with salad
plenty of water
coffees
truck loads of motivation
an early night!

 

[great things]

not too bad a day. very stressful day so broke slightly from plan with a bit more protein food than i should have had (nuts - now in the bin). everything else followed. so i would say a 95% day.

day 3 tomorrow

shake
tetra
bar
salad etc etc

teaching zumba at 7-8pm. last night afterwards i just didn't want to eat anything!

need to up my water intake though. today hasn't been as good that way.

 

[Surfhunny]

Ive been a bit lax on the water side of things today too I had a really horrible headache all afternoon because of it, but after zumba it was gone and i hadnt taken tablets either. Thats the power of endorphins and zumba for you I guess. Keep up the good work!!

truck loads of motivation

This is awesome!!! Good on you for the Zumba and tossing temptation (the nuts). Like you and Sal -- I need to push the water (I tend to drink buckets of coffee -- it is probably a Seattlelite thing.)

First Zumba in new ctr tonight! Not expecting anyone but if people come great!

New cargos. So I'm going orange, purple with a bright flo green instructor top! 2nd pic shows the colour a little better. I'm going to be very bright tonight!

 

[great things]

Another pic in brighter light. Still not showing it as eye boggling as it is!

 

[Surfhunny]

Hope people turned up for you tonight!!

 

[great things]

no one turned up. not worried as my advertising is aimed at next week. it's what happened afterwards that hurt more! details on fb. just can't believe that a member of staff at david l's has been bad mouthing me, a member of this gym, to another person who i believe is a member about my qualifications as a zumba instructor! horrid! it's made me really upset! i have enough emotional problems at the min of my own. doc has increased my anti-d meds as i'm feeling very up and down at the min and my temper is running on a very short fuse!

i've got 1 cd left and my salad and it's 9pm. i just don't feel like it. i feel very very upset and just want to cry!

 

[Surfhunny]

Unfreaking believable!!! So unprofessional!! I hope you give the manager what for tomorrow!!! It sounds to me like this twastard feels a touch threatened by you!!! Your qualifications can be verified on the official Zumba website for god sake!! This has made me angry!

 

[cornishkez]

Hey Nikki, that's disgusting. I agree with Surf, sounds like they're feeling threatened. Definately take it up with the manager and I would also take it up with the person who said it. Nasty gossips and stirrers rarely have the balls to say it to the persons face and it will embarrass her into not saying anything again!

 

[great things]

i'll say something to a friend who will be in ear shot of said persons.

 

[cornishkez]

I would confront her in front of witnesses. You don't need to be nasty or aggressive, just let her know you'd heard on the grapevine that she might have doubts about your qualifications and professional capabilities and would she like to discuss her concerns? She'll be mortified and will think twice about doing it again!

 

[Surfhunny]

Kerry is absolutely right, it's what I'd do, kill her with kindness, be polite but firm!! And make sure you have witnesses. Good luck, you won't need it though, because people like this never have the balls deal with the situation they've created when it comes to confrontation.

 

[great things]

thing is i suspect who it is, one of 2 people, but no proof! i should have asked the woman who she'd been talking to! dam wasn't that quick was i!

 

[cornishkez]

Oh, well your idea is probably best then, unless you can find out who they spoke to? What did they actually say?
