Last night was my last session with my trainer Isaac. I had 25 sessions with him from Jan-April then in May I bought 10 more sessions. I dropped a good bit of money, but I felt it was important to invest in myself. I bought the last 10 sessions to make sure I kept up my routine while I was crazy busy working orientation (which is when I usually fall off the wagon). This year I was able to lose the orientation 10 instead of gain the usual orientation 10 (this 10 pounds effects almost the entire staff…it’s crazy).
Isaac taught me a lot and pushed me even when I was snarling at him. He has been very impressed with my running – he says he’s not a runner and always smiles at me when I’m soaking wet running my heart out with a grin on my face.
Most importantly I really feel confident that “I got this.” I can get to the gym, do the right exercises and keep up my momentum. Plus I really don’t have the extra money to pay for sessions (Honest moment: I actually sold some old jewelry to a pawn shop to pay for my last 10 sessions, but a girl’s gotta do what she’s gotta do).
Also I’m not sure how long I’ll be living down in good old Alabama. I have been itching to return to the Northeast and some opportunities are presenting themselves that could make that happen sooner than later so I don’t want to commit to anything I couldn’t follow through with.
