Mission Accomplished

When I first began my sessions with a personal trainer I had one goal... to look and feel good in my bridesmaid dress.  Mission accomplished.  However, the trainer had a different goal in mind.  His goal was for me to get to a point when working out becomes such a habit that when I miss a day, my body notices.  Mission accomplished there as well.

For the last few Saturdays I have been meeting a friend and we've been working out together.  However, she couldn't make it today so I didn't go.  I had a lot of things that I needed to do at home, so I gave myself a free pass.  Besides, I've been working out with someone for so long that I really didn't want to do it alone.  However, now I kind of regret it.

I'm at the gym nearly every day.  If I'm not there, it's usually because of a commitment with the kids' school, or an appointment I couldn't get out of.
(9 times out of 10 I actually schedule my appointments around my time at the gym...)  But, for the most part, I'm there every week day, and recently, Saturdays.  On the days that I have something else going, it doesn't bother me so much because I'm occupied.  However, these days that I skip and I have nothing exciting going on (laundry and dishes is not exciting to me!), these are the days it bothers me.  I have gotten to the point where I kind of miss my workout.  I enjoy starting my day with a good sweat.  And all along I thought I just wanted to look good in a dress!
