Introduction
This September caught me by surprise. Honestly, I’m not sure how this will turn out. I don’t know if I can handle everything, and I don’t even know if I’ll reach all my goals. But I will try—with everything I’ve got.
Because this month didn’t arrive lightly. Between preparing my visa for India, reorganizing my weeks (what I was supposed to do in ten days, I had to squeeze into five), reviewing my students who are competing in October, and keeping up with my own training… sometimes it feels like too much pressure for one person.
And yes, sometimes I ask myself if I can really do it. I don’t know if I’ll manage to lose weight while traveling and juggling so many things—it’s really hard. But I want to give it a try. I want to document this experience because, in the end, it’s not only about me.
In August, many of my students inspired me deeply. Even when they were sick, sad, or simply exhausted, they showed up with discipline and commitment. They taught me that it *is* possible. That keeps me motivated—it reminds me that we can still move forward even when life feels overwhelming.
So here I am, opening this September Challenge Journal: because I know many people also feel like they can’t do it, like they have too much on their plate, yet they keep trying. I’m in that same place too—tired, doubting—but willing to try. If this test helps me grow and later inspires others, then it will have been worth it.

How is this going to work?
This month I set myself a clear challenge: to prove—to myself and anyone following along—that even in the middle of travel, chaos, and endless responsibilities, it’s still possible to stay disciplined and make real progress toward my goals.
To keep myself accountable, I’ll track everything with numbers:
– **Weight:** starting at 69 kg (152 lbs), aiming to drop 2–3 kg in one month.
– **Rehearsals:** at least 3 per week.
– **Challenge sessions:** 2 per week.
– **Gym / complementary workouts:** 3–4 per week.
– **Sleep:** minimum 7 hours per night.
– **Nutrition:** intermittent fasting + Ezekiel bread with black coffee in the mornings, and balanced meals throughout the day.
– **Reflections:** every day, I’ll share what worked, what didn’t, and what I discovered.
This isn’t about perfection—it’s about consistency. Some days will be messy, but the important part is to keep moving.
