All right buddies~

Just got back from meeting with a Trainer...

Verdict: I am a fat ass! :) Just kidding.

OK, So my cousin and I joined a gym on Monday. I went and worked out Tuesday, Wednesday and today.

Today we met with a trainer. He weighed me, took measurements, and calculated my percentage of body fat (ICK) The last one is the one I was COMPLETELY dreading. I mean, my husband doesn't even get to pinch my fat, why in the world did I let a stranger?

So I thought my percentage of body fat would be 99.9% When he told me it was 41%, I was pretty happy :Banane20: I know ideally in perfect shape people it is like 18.9%? So I was just really glad that it wasn't 100%.

My cuz and I hired him to be our trainer. We are going to work with him for 50 minutes once a week (that's all we can afford) Wish I had 3,000 for the big plan they wanted to set us up on, but that ain't gonna happen right now.

I am VERY excited about this whole gym thing. I NEVER in a gazillion years thought that I would WANT to go and work out. Sheez, I feel like a million bucks.

Guess I am in the "Honeymoon Phase" of working out !!! heheheheeee

I am going to put my weight in my sig that the stupid freaking gym said. That way I will update it once a week and quit weighing at home everyday.

Contrats on you not being 100% body fat, lmao! I'm proud of you Heathergurl. You are doin it! In the gym, on the elliptical.. sweating and working those Buns. NOw you need that Emimem song that I listen to it's call "Shake that" It's a real motivator.:Banane41:

Hey can't the trainer work out a payment plan for the $3,000k package? Seriously, I don't think I'd be comfortable giving a trainer that much intially I mean.. what if he skips town or goes away forever?

Keep us posted.

I have been staying at my moms house for the past week...I had taken my scale up there to be able to weigh in for the week. I love that scale! Its the one I've been usin forever....so anyways, I left it at mom's...four hours away. I'm pretty mad, it was around 80 bucks, but I'm going to try and find a new on soon. Plus we are leaving for Texas in a couple days, just have to make sure and not leave it there.

Anyways, just wanted to complain. And let ya'll know, I may not be able to weigh in for a little while...

Telly,

I think they will do a payment plan... but this is with a huge gym... so I am pretty sure that if he skipped, they would give me another trainer.

I DID 10 WHOLE minutes on the elliptical today! That was so great.

Heather - great news on the trainer and your body fat percentage. I'm so proud of you that you're working out and enjoying it. Like I told P'Nut, it only takes 21 days to make something a habit so...get going!! Yay!!

Telly - *hugs* that's all....LOL

Emilee - sorry to hear about leaving your favorite scale at your Mom's house. Why not just have her pack it up and ship it to you rather than spending money on a new one? It would be a heck of a lot cheaper to ship it. Anyway, have a GREAT time in Texas and we'll see you when you return.

Thanks Tricia for the advice, and I thought that too, and have her send it down to Texas. But I've been thinking about it and I think I'll just get a new one, I've heard on here about ones that show your body fat or other little health things....so I'll start looking around. I just dont want to get a new one and it shows me at a complete different weight, especially a gain!

LOL Tricia_K. *raspberry* to you. :)

EmileeKaye! Girl how could you forget my eyes and ears? You left it at moms right before your 2 week vacation..hmmm fishy. I'm just teasing baby girl. LOL.

Mom should ship it to you though, I agree, maybe ship it to Texas so it's there when you get there.

*Huggles* and drive safely. Check on us every now and then to ensure we are not cheating.. ok?

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
