Okay, back in 2008 I said that I was going to dedicate 2009 "The Year of Leigh". It has started off slow, but steady. Trying to "allow" me to have "me" time is difficult. It is a battle that I have with my OCD!
About 6 weeks ago I joined a gym, which I knew was going to be a good thing, as long as I went. And, I have! I write it on my calendar and have stuck with it since I joined, with the exception of spring break, because we were not here. After spring break I started asking some friends, who also go, about personal trainers. A few of my friends have had personal trainers and have enjoyed that process. You may recall a blog entry talking about my first visit with a personal trainer................no pain, no gain, right?! It was the whole walking Jell-O thing! It was a "good" pain, but nevertheless, PAIN. After some discussions I told myself that on April 1st I was going to sign on the dotted line and commit for 6 months of personal training. What is today?!
I went to my regular morning class and talked to the instructor after about personal training. There was a little argument going on in my head, with myself........
"yes."
"no."
"yes."
"no."
So, as I was walking towards the door, argument still going on, my body stopped at the front desk, my mouth opened and spoke. Now, this was totally against the "other" person in my head! The question I asked was, "how do you know which personal trainer is best for you?" Legit question. I told them, "I don't was someone who will make me throw up or cry." Before I knew it......I had signed on the dotted line!
OMG! So, I will expect a phone call from "my" personal trainer soon. There is a person who reviews my file and they assign a trainer based on my wants and needs. I hope it isn't the owner of the gym..........he scares me! He could probably bench press.......A LOT. While I was filling out the personal training paperwork, he was training a man, who I thought was going to cry and then pass out! That is when the "other" voice in my head began to scream and cry!!!!
So, come with me on this journey, "The Year of Leigh - Fine in '09"! I'm sure that there will be many stories! I may pack a barf bag with my gym towel! LOL
