Wow! I can't believe it! One of my co-workers sought me out and asked if she could be my personal trainer! She knows of my new lifestyle and is a very health-conscious person herself.
She and her husband are 2 of the wealthiest people in all of Indiana and they (literally) have a YMCA at their home (complete with indoor racquetball court!). Anyway, we're starting tonight at 7. She has a machine called a gauntlet (?) that is supposedly a real butt-kicker and she told me that body fat just falls off when you use it! Can't wait!
DH doesn't want me to tell any of my co-workers (he wants them to see the results and ask and I want to avoid jealousy. plus my friend likes to brag occasionally, so I'll let her brag on me!) so I just had to tell SOMEONE!
Thanks for listening WISH friends!!!

UPDATE: I went last night and did about 45 minutes of cardio and 30 minutes of weights. OK--the Gauntlet! It's made by Stairmaster and it's like a mini escalator...full-size steps that revolve! The kicker is that they are 8-inch steps! Holy cow was it hard! But I did 15 minutes w/out stopping! THEN, she put me on a stairmaster for another 15 and then a little treadmill! I didn't think I'd be able to get out of bed this morning, but it really wasn't too bad! Next visit is Wednesday night! I'm actually looking forward to more torture---what's wrong with me?!?

What a great motivation- don't worry we'll do alot of bragging for you too!!! And don't get too concerned if your appetite goes WAY up the first few weeks- when you're upping your exercise the appetite kind of shoots up- but it settles down once you've gotten used to the routine.
