I am still struggling inside. I knew I had an almost 0% chance of being chosen by the Biggest Loser, to be a contestant, but I dared to hope. I dared to believe it was possible.
I got up at 3 a.m. Saturday, May 11, 2013, and drove to Dallas. It was quite a brave thing for me to do, this small town girl has always refused and insisted that I would never drive in a big city like Chicago. While I did not see "street driving" as in Chicago, I dared to do it. I wanted this sooooo bad that I was willing to try, willing to step outside my comfort zone.
We (Danielle went with me) arrived around 5:30 a.m. Good thing we were early. The line was already 40+ deep. I was #48 in line. I met some really nice people, and Mary was there. They didn't start taking people in the door until after 10:15 a.m., but the time between 5:30 a.m. and 10:30 a.m., it seemed to fly.
Good Luck Johnny Walker!!!
I am glad I went, and I am glad I tried. I dared to dream. My dream hasn't come true as of yet. The Dallas call-backs are over, but I'm submitting that video online....just in case. I haven't given up on my dream. I'm not a quitter.
I've submitted by "2nd Chance" Video, put together the 9 page application, and I'm not giving up. No matter how hard the waiting, hoping and disappointments, I will keep trying.
The most important thing that I take from this is "Don't Stop Believing!". I have to keep trying. I have to keep stepping outside the comfort zone.
I am NOT a quitter! I still believe. I still believe in dreams!
