"It is not the critic who counts, not the one who points out how the strong man stumbled or how the doer of deeds might have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred with sweat and dust and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who, if he wins, knows the triumph of high achievement; and who, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."

FIRST personal training session

Okay so last night I had my first personal training session.  We started off with the measurements and I thought I was going to be bummed out from the start but I stepped on the scale and I am down 3 more pounds since Tuesday's doctor appointment!  My trainer Kim is very knowledgeable and we decided to push me but not to the point of extreme exhaustion or getting sick.  I did 4 types of exercises 1 yoga related thing I don't remember the name of, then Russian twists, followed by lunges with weight pushing up to an arm exercise and then planks.  Planks are not fun at all and I am paying for them today!  I am proud of myself I made it to the gym 3 times this week!  It is tough but I am sticking to the diet as well but small steps will yield positive results.
