So after almost a month of working out 3 times a week here I am looking to doing this again for another month. Well, I told the trainers I would give them until my birthday to show me this works. When I first signed up I had to take 3 classes that were 1 on 1 with the trainers. I was really surprised and impressed at how much info was put into these sessions. I got to know both trainers a little bit and they got to know me.
I was shown how to do some of the exercises in 1 session and as helpful as this was it was a little overwhelming trying to get it all in my head.
The 2nd session was a nutrition session. It was probably the most helpful of all the sessions. While most of it is common sense there were things I learned about my eating habits that I had not stopped and taken the time to realize such as I hate protein with the exception of cheese. See, I'm not big on eating meat in fact I get tired of chewing that stuff. And as much as I love my veggies I couldn't eat all that were on the plan. I don't dislike fruit but I hate to buy it and have to cut it up so I buy it already cut up. Then there was the dreaded weigh in. I have to say G-d intervened on this one because I don't get on a scale for anyone. Well, by this time I knew even if I didn't like what was being asked of me I was going to have to do it.
Thus began the nutrition part of this journey. As easy as it should have been to get on board with this it wasn't. I struggled for over a week to do 5 strict days of this plan with no sugar and no cheating. I finally got it! It's still a struggle especially when holidays come around but I'm trying and really working hard at sticking to it. I just don't like meat and that is my biggest struggle. But I believe I will be keeping the dairy farmers in business as I love milk and that is considered a carb and a protein ;-) So after 1 month the weight loss is around 11lbs. Do I wish it was more.... heck yeah! But it's a start and the start of my journey to do even better next month.
