Had my first hour of the weight loss session yesterday. [View all]

At Lifetime. And it was a full hour on a treadmill at various inclines with some weights and resistance bands. The goal was to raise and lower your heart rate during the hour into various target zones.

For my first time - I KEPT UP WITH THE CLASS AND COMPLETED THE WHOLE THING!

And it was pretty awesome! I was so proud of myself when I walked out of there yesterday morning to head for work.

Tomorrow morning I have the first session with the personal trainer to start working on strength and muscle.

I can't believe I am actually doing this, but I am really happy with this decision.

Good for you! But I can't see "personal trainer" without thinking of "Arthur II" and Marth's guy. HopeHoops Oct 2012 #8

Sorry, I didn't see that movie. Denninmi Oct 2012 #9

Just wave your tackle at him. He'll leave you alone. And Dudley Moore was THE Arthur. HopeHoops Oct 2012 #10

Well, I guess, but I'll have to stop by the fishing aisle at Dunham's Sporting Goods on the way. Denninmi Oct 2012 #12
