Look at this gorgeous Christmas gift I got from my husband. The gift that keeps on giving ;)
<---------
I got this today with the intention of being 2 weeks ahead of the new years resolutioners. Those people I used to despise when I worked out 7 days a week. Every year on January 1st there wasn't an open treadmill to be found for the next 3 months.
I start tomorrow at 8:30am with a personal coach I will have for 8 weeks. I'm psyched. I feel better than I have felt in a very long time except for the fact that I'm still lugging around and extra friends worth of weight. I can do this. I can stick to it and next year at this time, be 100 pounds lighter.
I'm starting over once again. This time I'm in a really good place. I even gave my blog a temporary makeover.
Stay tuned for a new years post I'm working on. There will be pictures and there will be a fun calorie plan for the year. In the meantime, I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the last few days before Christmas! Happy Holidays everyone!!
What a lovely, lovely gift. I hope it gives you the zing you're looking for as 2010 approaches!

Hi, visiting for the first time. What a great plan to get a jump start on everyone else. I think you'll really like working out with a coach too. I started with a trainer 6 weeks ago and feel it was exactly what I needed to give myself that kick in the butt that I needed.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to reading about your experiences.
congrats, what a great gift. Good luck with your goals!
