Gym is open - gross out monday

They are painting in front of the box office today so we had to open the front sales window.  This window hasn't been open since I've been here and that's 6 years.  So I'm cleaning out the crud, the bugs, the cigarette butts.  I go inside and pull the apparatus that keeps the slide through window closed and there's a piece of cardboard wrapped around something.  It's got writing on it.
I'm imagining a love letter for someone who has performed her or something like that.  NOT.  I open it up and it's a pair of men's underwear.  I screamed and threw it.  So disgusting!

I met with my trainer this morning and I start next monday.  M,W,F and it's $100 a month.  I told ya'll he likes me.  He's a sweetheart and loved training my son.  I always move him to the front of the theatre when he comes to the symphony too. 

What did you do to move to lose today?

Biggest Loser DVD 45 minutes of cardio

Pool day! I'm off for Prez Day and want to get my laps in early.

I also am buying a new sewing machine today! DD needed one for school (Art School - apparel design) so I gave her my old one and now will get one that threads itself. (Can't thread that bitty needle as well as I used to!)

60 minutes on the elliptical

Kath - I'm jealous of the $100 a month trainer; I gotta be honest. Mine is costing me $40 a session and as of this week I'm going to him 4 x a week. But! It's making such a difference in my weight loss and motivation. I don't know how long I will justify the expense - we'll see - but I have to admit, it's working.

I don't see him tonight though. I'm doing cardio on my own. Last night I rocked it and did 45 mins on the treadmill. The first 20 minutes I did 2.8 with a 3 incline, 15 minutes at 3.0 with a 5.0 incline and the last 10 minutes I did 2.8 with an 8 incline. I was doing the "waddle" towards the end. I felt amazing though.

That's what they wanted to charge me ($30) to have him come to the Y.  I knew he would cut me a phenomenal deal because he loved Kris so much.  I had to join their gym but that's $27 a month and I don't mind at all. 

I make it to the gym regularly, but I know I need someone to kick my butt and I hope this really helps me.  I grabbed my thunder thighs and told him I want them gone and he laughed at me.  But it was one of those "you don't know what you are asking" kind of laughs.  I'm in for some hard work, I know.

As long as you can afford the trainer, and keep getting results, I would say to keep it up.

Planning to hit the treadmill tonight.  I am starting to see new wrinkles in the big ol' belly so I finally feel like the exercise is paying off. 

That is so awesome and I know you are feeling so much better too!
