Today I have begun a new journey. One that I have tried before and failed miserably. What is that you might wonder? Well, reader, I have hired a personal trainer.
I have been very depressed and stressed lately. My body, my hair...everything. So last Wednesday I hired a sitter and got a make-over. My hair (cut and colored), a manicure and a pedicure were all on the schedule. While I was at Salon E getting these awesome services, I learned about Elements of Exercise. EOE takes up most of the building and the back area is the salon and spa. Cool, right?! One location to make you feel beautiful: inside and out.
So on Friday, after doing a bit of soul searching, I called and set up a meeting with a Personal Trainer. On Saturday morning (10am) I met with Kara. She really made me feel comfortable and she wasn't sticky skinny. She was fit and healthy looking.
This morning, at 7am, I was at Elements of Exercise getting my first session of personal training. Boy, it was quite a workout. However, I also got nutrition information and tips on how I won't be on a diet. I need a full body flush out: chemicals gone, unhealthy food gone, and positive and healthful food put in. But more than anything I am just in need of a head to toe make-over.
What really did it for me was when I looked in the wall of mirrors at my body. Who was that fat girl standing next to Kara? Was that me? It was a sobering moment, and one I will NEVER EVER forget.
So here is the first of many blogs to come regarding the journey to overall fitness. Wish me luck!
