Re: I'm coming out...
Posted by MrsMerlot
I'll start off by saying that I haven't had a chance to read through the threads on this board, but promise to do so within the next week so that I do not reiterate what's already been said/done.
Yes, a New Year does bring resolutions, and I have to say that I never really made resolutions, but in the rare occasion that I did/have, I never stuck to them. So, this is not my resolution, but my "coming out" on the Diet & Fitness world.
I'm being honest, but I never desired to lose weight b/c I accepted "me" for the way I am, and because I'm a "jolly" chubby girl, knew that everyone around me loved me from the inside and that's all that matter. What's sparking this "change" doesn't matter. What matters is that I've finally come to terms with many things (weight, size, energy, overall health, etc) and ready to take responsibility for it and do something with it.
That being said, I would like to thank one very special Lady (Kim P) for being one of the two inspiring people in my life. Kim, I've been sneaking a peak into your world for a few years now, and I just want to say THANK YOU! Your progress is inspiring, and your advice is priceless.
The other person is a very good friend of mine, Meirav (she "sneaks" a peak on here every once in a while.) Meirav is an Allure Editor and her most recent article in January's Allure was the wake-up call I needed. Everything she wrote, I experienced with her, and it is a true eye-opener. Thank you Ms. M - I love you and I know you'll kick my arse when I need it.
To everyone out there - seriously, read Meirav's article in this month's Allure...all you'll do is say "wow, that's me."
I'm on WW Points Plus and going to the gym 4 times a week (45 minutes each time.) Hubby promised me a personal trainer as a gift when I've gone 4 weeks x 4 days per week!
So, ladies - I'm coming out and I'm here. Please promise me you'll kick my arse when I need it?
Best of luck to you Chrissy!!!

Re: I'm coming out...
Welcome! I too have been working with a trainer since March of last year and the result are incredible. It is personalized to your goals and you really learn the right way to exercise. That is what will keep it long term if you learn the right way.
That being said, it is def an investment and it is not cheap. But it really is worth it in the end it is your health & happiness!
Good luck & congrats
FM me anytime
