Elderly Gym Barbie

I went for my first session with the personal trainer (PT) on Wednesday, the one who is "used to working with the elderly" - it was fantastic.  The PT is a really, really nice woman.  She is annoyingly gorgeous and has a revoltingly hot body, AND she is a lovely person. And clever!  She is a qualified attorney.  Clever, pretty and smart!  And used to working with the elderly, WHAT A WIN!  Marko is very excited and wants to know whether he can have a 'personal session' with her (he is also used to 'working with the elderly', being married to me).  I said fine, as long as it doesn't involve me. 

The first session was just a fitness assessment (hideously unfit) where I had to do as many sit ups as I could in a minute (one), how many squats (two) or whatever they are called etc.  She then took a few measurements and wrote it all down on a sheet.  And then she weighed me.  Amazingly I had lost 5 kgs since I joined the gym, which just goes to show - just by joining a gym, you can lose weight, even if you never actually go.  WIN!  I only have 10kgs to go (I think that converts to about 22 pounds or 14,000 donuts). 

It was definitely the right decision to sign up with a PT. There is no way I would have gone if left to my own devices.  Who knows, I might even get to like this whole exercise / being fit thing.  Maybe.  First proper session on Monday.  I'll be there, leotard and legwarmer a-ready.

I went to the gym for the fitness (fat-ass)essment thingie too... wow that sucked... went 2 times after that and gave up...

You will be amazed at how quickly you progress! Good luck! I'm knitting you some leg warmers as we speak...

go you!!!! please please PLEASE put some photos up. p.s. if you have lost 5kg without trying, it confirms my suspicion that you have an amazing metabolism and that the gym will simply speed it up even further. looking at sister mel's surfie body, she has the same kinda metabolism.
good luck!
