Sorry I haven't posted in a few days, but I've been nursing my wounds. And by wounds, I mean wounds to my self-esteem. At the time, it was AWFUL, but in the end it has pushed me to workout and eat clean every day since so maybe it's a good thing it happened? In the words of Monk, here's what happened:
Location: Personal Trainer Class
When: Thursday, March 11
Small back story: So I may have developed a mini crush on a guy in my class. Just so happens we have managed to become partners in class. Normally, this is a good thing. This was not a good thing on Thursday.
The mortifying story: My teacher comes in to class with a huge grin on his face, and a pile of little flat boxes in his hand. He says, "We're learning how to do body composition testing today! And we're going to practice on each other!" My heart sunk. If this was last year, I would have said, "Let's go!" But this wasn't last year, and we all know I've put on a bit of weight these past few months. I briefly considered developing an illness that required me to go home, but I wasn't fast enough. And you guessed it, my crush turned to me, and said, "Come on partner!" So getting to know each other involved him pinching the fat on my tricep, thigh and tummy pooch to find out just how much fat I have in my body. At least I'd worked out for the previous five days so I had an ounce of oomph in me to survive it. Overall outcome - I have about 20% more than he does, and I wanted to run home to hide under the covers with a monster bag of peanut butter M&Ms.
The silver lining: Instead of turning to M&Ms, I phoned a friend and we ended up laughing at the ridiculousness of 'the incident.' And seriously, do these things just happen to me??? Also, instead of using this as an excuse to give up, I've been using it to push myself through my workouts and make good food choices. I now have a full 10 days under my belt - woo hoo!
Have a great night!
