This first week has gone by fast. I made it to LP four times this week. I took an abs class that my trainer, Sarah, teaches. Tough class but made it through. Thought my stomach would be really sore the next day but I was pleasantly surprised. Wednesday I did my assessment and got set up on the weights. The weights are soooo nice to work with. I love that it tells me all my settings. I am not a morning person so have been doing all my workouts when I get off of work.
I also met with Katie on nutrition. She gave me things to work on. I knew some of my weaknesses before (like sunflower seeds) and I was already addressing some of them. I also have big issues with alcohol. She gave me a goal of only drinking 2 beers all night at card club on Friday. I had only 3 so was still happy with myself.
My biggest success this week was my blood pressure. I have been taking it 3-4 times everyday at random times. My bottom number has been below 100 every time which is a huge deal for me. I can't believe that a week and a half of exercise can make such a difference.
Looking forward to seeing everyone again Monday.
