Guest guest Posted July 27, 2008 Report Posted July 27, 2008 I have been trying to get back in shape for I don't know how long now. I take off fine, get some results, and then SOMETHING tends to come up that I use for an excuse to stop and I STOP. After I've recovered from my shoulder accident and have gone back to work, some real depression has set in over my struggle to get back to the real ME. I know I need to get some help. I look OK, but I FEEL AWFUL. I called my old Personal Trainer, that' I loved working out with before and saw real results. (I haven't worked with him in 10 years.) I know if I commit to having someone help me, I think I can make this work. I seem to think I KNOW everything and SHOULD be able to do it myself on my own, but I think I've got to a point in my life where I WON'T do it on my own and know I need his discipline to help me learn to engage my own self discipline that was easy for me years ago! LOL!! So I have an appointment to meet him tomorrow and set up my new workout schedule! I am as excited as a kid at Christmas! LOL!! I have planned for all this for the last few weeks. I have my goals and meal plans and everything written down in my BODY FOR LIFE journal. I am set. I am going to " JERRY " my trainer for 12 weeks. After that I'm going to see where I'm at and if I feel I can take over on my own from there. SHEL **************Get fantasy football with free live scoring.

Guest guest Posted July 27, 2008 Report Posted July 27, 2008 Great prepartion, Shel and good luck! It's OK if part of doing it " on your own " means enlisting the help of a trainer. YOU are the one who will be doing the work, not Jerry. Enjoy the process! > I have been trying to get back in shape for I don't know how long now.
