I'm Slowly Dying

I met with a personal trainer today. Can you say ow? I seriously feel my body slowly dying. Everything hurts....already. I wouldn't be surprised if I was stuck in bed tomorrow. HAHA, just kidding. He showed me a bunch of cool moves I could do on my own without weights or any machines. I'm really excitied. I'm meeting him again next week.

Only bad thing was I felt really sick working out. I ate a fiber one granola for breakfast and had a salad for lunch with a fatty dressing (only 2 tbsp) and then had some cheese and grapes, but I felt like I was going to throw up. I felt my heart racing in my thighs and all of a sudden I felt very nauseous. He said it happens sometimes with new people and that I probably didn't eat enough or that I didn't have enough sugar in my system. He asked me to bring my food journal next week so he could look at it and help me so it wouldn't happen again. I felt like such a dork. He made me go get water and sit for a few minutes but from then on he kept asking me if I felt sick or if I was okay. To make matters worse, he's a hot personal trainer! Ugh. Not saying I'm looking, but if he was nerdy at least I could pull it off with the "I'm fine" thing. HAHA

Today's been a good day, minus the soreness. I'm just relaxing and looking forward to my future workouts with him. He promised me 5-10 pounds a month if I do what he says and so I'm really excitied. I think this wedding has me super motivated. Especially now that I can look down at my finger and see a ring as I run. What more motivation do you need? He asked me what goal I wanted to reach in 9 months and I said I'd like to be around 150 but I want to do what is best for my body in those 9 months. He said he could get me to 140. 140! Yay! Almost to my goal by my wedding. I'm already so excitied.

Sadly my percent body fat was 38%! But he said my muscle mass was at 107.5 pounds which he said was really good. Apparently he gets people that have 75 pounds of muscle mass so I'm already ahead of the game.

What a great day! Hope everyone else had a great weekend and is ready to tackle this week. One day at a time, right?
