I coulda quit…But I didn’t
Man, every day something new!
Today the new circuit thing was clean and press with correct "full squat!" and burpees! Plus all the rest of the circuit…the other new circuit excercise…I have no clue what its called but I had a 45 pound dumbbell in each hand and I had to walk as fast as I could from one end of the gym and back! Mind you I couldn’t take huge steps or even regular step, the steps were like you walk when you are carrying two 45 pound buckets of water or something…that ’s the only mental pic I can think of as a description…I am sure most of you know what I am talking about…
It was arm day today! I was drenched once again! And then I decided to drive to the gym closer to my house to do the cardio…I went to the gym where L normally works out after work…but I didn’t want to stay there to do cardio…the equipment is pretty old and squeeks! But I was soooooo exhausted by the end of the workout that I found myself wanting to doze off while driving, lifting two days in a row and circuit training…AAAaaaaahhh I still have leg day tomorrow to finish up my week with L…I stopped and grabbed a coffee as a pick me up. Then I went to Good Life, the gym I originally started my training with L at and did 30 minutes cardio on the elliptical…Good thing I keep extra workout clothes in the car, I changed my T-shirt into a new workout top in the car because the one I workout with earlier was soaking wet! I realised that I could have called it quits after gym # 1 but I didn’t I pushed myself to gym #2 to finish up my cardio…I feel proud of myself for doing that!
Now I can understand why the day of rest in between lifting is so important…but i really didn’t want to miss my Sunday workout…so I crammed them one after the other…Saturday and Sunday will be no exercise days…so I hope it will be ok.
L said my hips look like they are coming down…meaning smaller on the sides! I can’t see anything I told him…then he reminded me of the size 8 I fit into and I didn’t see anything then too! Ya! Ok! I still don’t see a difference…I just see FAT GIRL!…
Well, something must be happening because people at work today were like…did you lose more weight?…Uh…NO! Been the same weight for over a year now!!!
I dunno…
Until I see muscles! I am not convinced! Until I see the back fat gone! I am not convinced! Until I see Shirley Temple’s dimples disappear from my arse…I am not convinced!!!!

Wait, what’s her face doing on your backside? There something weird going on here?
I understand what you mean about not seeing the difference at times. The non-problem areas aren’t of great importance to me right now, so I mostly ignore looking at them. But that darn fat area…
Keep the fire stoked! Personally, I think you should challenge L that he didn’t push you hard enough last time, and see what you get out of it. ;P It might be rough(er) during that session, but you might get more out of it too!

Are you kidding me?!!! that’s like asking the guillotine guy at the gallows to use a dull axe instead of a sharp straight edge. No WAY would I tell L he hasn’t pushed me hard enough…AAAAh I shudder just thinking about what he may come up with to torture my large lumpy arse…its bad enough he has me dreading every exercise now!

ROFL. Okay, okay… Not seeing how hard he works you over I’ll just go with the idea that he beats you down like a really cruel drill sergeant.
Though now that you’ve blogged about all that drinking over the weekend, I think you ought to get us some way to text L, so we can let him know that you’ve been sloughing off… >:D
