Early 40's yet not quite pushing 45 or even 50 and I want to feel like I did when I was 30. And so I'll begin. I joined a gym as a birthday present to myself this year and set a goal to be even more fabulous than I already am in one year. I know that I have a long way to go and that it isn't going to be easy.
So I am starting this blog for two reasons. 1. To document my progress and change along the way, the ups AND downs. And 2. to make myself accountable for my own goal.
They say the best way to accomplish a goal is to write it down and to tell someone else, this way I kill two birds with one stone because sooner or later someone will read this. And if you are reading, I welcome advice and tips as well as any and all cheer-leading along the way.
I won't post my beginning weight, however I will say that I'd love to lose about 60 lbs. I want to do it in a healthy, life changing way so that the change is not just a "quick fix".
I joined the gym a week ago yesterday, so far I have only skipped one day. I have mainly worked a little cardio on the elliptical and bike, walked on the track and done a few exercises on the weights.
Today, I signed up with a trainer. I'll call her "A" for any future post to protect her privacy. And to tell the truth ... she worked my butt off! I'm not a fan of squats and lunges, yet she had me doing that and more. I'll meet with "A" once a week to work out and she will provide direction for my work outs on the the days that I am not with her.
So, here goes ..... I'm on my way to Fabulous!!
