Reality at the Gym
Today I had a consultation with a personal trainer. Of course, we have been through this drill before. All the questions. Yes, I do not do what I am suppose too. But I know what to do.
But this time it really did seem different. Her name is Nicole. Nicole shared with me her struggles with weight. She has 2 beautiful daughters. Ages 5/2. And this tan and toned fitness guru is telling me she use to weight 225 at 5'7?
To look at her defined thigh muscle, you would never guess it. But today as I got on the scale wit hthe last memory of my weight. 225 I was confident to hear "good news". Just a little overweight....Well I really did know better than to hear THAT lie, but what I hear next really surprised me...
245....what 245!!! That is half way to 300!!! I let 200 slide by with the excuse I know some people who weight 200...But in no way can I excuse 300!!
I have to do something....This is real and serious. My head looks small on my ever growing body. Have I really gained 20 lbs in less than a year!!!
YIKES, Have I really lost control? Is this why I am so uncomfortable? Why I blame my husband for his shortcomings while I'm really trying to hide my own. Why did he not say anything? Or has he? Sex has really not been the same for the past 3 years to be truthful?
Well I had said that June 1st would be the beginning and so far I have managede to stay on the healthy eating track. But now I realize I have to move and do something. I really don't have the energy I use to. I NEED HELP!!
I go back on Thursday to go over a custom training program...but I have done that before and never was motivated enough to stick to it...should I hire a trainer? $25 a session is affordable, right? I've wasted more money on less important things....Let's see how it goes.
