Brennan said knock you out!

    Like Ice Cube use to say...Today was a good day. And it really was. I ate well and had an awesome workout. It felt so natural for me to do as awesome I did today. Easy lunch, hard, but rewarding workout, and stayed away from sweets! That's great in itself! My friend, one of the personal trainers I work with, had been speaking to me periodically about him helping me lose weight after I had approached him about weeks prior. Well, today was finally that first day of help. From now on, I will refer to him as My Coach. He did such a great job encouraging me to go faster and longer. It was not easy working out with him, but it was well worth it. I got to do strength training that I have been longing to do ever since I started the workouts. He has changed up my routine, and I am completely happy with that. After  the exhausting workout of crunches, chest presses, and meetings with an elliptical, my coach decided that it was time for boxing. Boxing? Seemed fun, but just not at that moment. Maybe next time. It was so hard! It took every bit of strength I had left out of my body. Power punches felt more like arm stretching after about 15 blows to the red padding because I felt so weak after. After we were done, I felt really good, like after every workout. Took a shower and thought, these clothes won't fit pretty soon, they just might fall off. I was suppose to soak in hot water and epsom salt tonight...didn't do it. Oops! Hopefully I won't be too soar tomorrow. Blessings!
