Nik vs. The Personal Trainer (round 1)

Ok, so I know I talk a lot about self acceptance, embracing my weight and all that wonderful jazz. But you have to understand one thing about me. I am VAIN. Look up vanity in the mirror and you'll find this:



Mmmkay? SO that's the level of vanity we're working with.

So I decided to invest in some personal training sessions because self acceptance or not, your girl will NOT have a saggy butt if there is anything I can do about it.

SO I met with my  new trainer this morning. I initally liked him because he doesn't take any crap off of you. I did a tester session and when I complained about being tired, sore or the like he was basically like, "suck it up and finish the set." I like that. I am kinda stoic so that works for me.

But today was my first REAL session with him.

THY GOD!!!!

I know three things as of right now:

1. I am going to be very, very sore tomorrow
2. The divas will have to stop me from taking a contract out on that man
3. I'm sticking with him!!! I have fitness goals and with workouts like THAT I truly believe I can get there!

I SURVIVED!!!!

My surgeons office has a personal trainer to work with you after your surgery. He's tough like that too. I had an appointment today with him, but I canceled it due to fainting yesterday.

 I found this post hilarious, Nik. 

I'm too scared to even join a gym, so I'm envious of your personal trainer, even if he may be satan.

 look at those boobs! lol. the last trainer i worked with was a sample session and it was a decent workout but he was super easy, didn't yell at me to keep going or anything. and was pretty much whining for me to sign up with him.... he was pretty hot though lol

First of all Nik, that dress makes the girls look amazing.

Second, I have been seeing a trainer for about 4 months. I fired my first one, but I really like this one. Give him a ridiculous nickname behind his back. For me it helps. I call mine Boots, because he is a tiny latino *****minds me of puss in boots from Shrek.

And make it fun. I make him do all sorts of crazy **** with me and it really helps. I am learning to box. The first time I pounded the bag thinking of everyone who had ever given me a hard time for being fat. It felt like victory.
