Personal Training isn't that personal...


{random outfit from last week}


So....I'm going to meet with a personal trainer today...and I'm nervous!! At many gyms you get a "free session" with a personal trainer so that's what we're doing today. Usually this free session is a fitness assessment but the trainer said "no, it's not an assessment it's a personal training session." So I said YES!!!! I can assess my own fitness level, but having a different trainer put me through his workout is exciting!! Except, what if he asks me what my fitness goals are. I have no idea. Well, maybe an idea--I'd like to adopt the mentality that I don't have to do two-a-days. I'd like to be less competitive with myself. It would be amazing to go for a jog, feel good and not feel pressure from myself to beat my personal best. Hmm...wonder if there's a gym that offers a free therapy session?? haha!!! I will update you on how it goes..

Speaking of personal training..Erik has lost 9 pounds and he has gone down two belt notches!!! Woooo-hooo!!!!

Fitness goals, eh ... well I went out jogging in the "real world" for the first time in ages this past weekend ... and while I was proud that I didn't pass out or die through any of it, I guess my fitness goal is being able to job without turning into a cripple for the following two days! ;o)

I went to the doctor today for an annual checkup and was appalled when I stepped on the scale.
To say I'm disgusted with myself is an understatement.
Can you move to NJ and motivate me please?
Or can we at least have daily emails or something to keep my on track????
You are like my fitness hero!!!!

Lisa you crack me up!!!

Eleanor you look great in your pics!! I'll email you ;)

So the trainer was kind, unorganized, and inexperienced so it was a colossal waste of time. Oh well...

But there is a female trainer there who competes in fitness competitions...hmmm...
