The gym

Hey guys! 

I’ve been offline on pretty much everything recently because last Friday I started at a gym. With a personal trainer. 

Let me tell you, my personal trainer is one of the sweetest people I know, but when it comes to the gym she’s like the spawn of Satan. Which is good, I guess if you want to get fit. 

“3 sets of 10 squats, go.” 
“2,000m on the rower, go.” 
“3 sets of 10 crunches, go.” 
“Skipping, 10 minutes, go.” 

etc etc etc. 

My workout routine changes daily and I’m there for an hour a time. I go four times a week (Tuesday’s – Friday’s) and each time I go I always feel better afterwards. (After sweating a bucket and gasping for air.) 

If 13 year old Daisy met me now she’d probably shocked but hopefully proud. Never did I think I would be one of those people who would workout for an hour at a time, let alone step foot in a gym. But now it’s something I live for. 

I’m not one of those “gym is my life blah blah blah” people and I certainly never will be. I complain like hell when I’m at the gym because I think Rhonda is pushing me too hard (which is pretty much her job,) and I still have my chocolate fix but I’m already dreaming of when I’ll see my first results from my hard work and it’s a day I look forward to so much. 

On top of going to the gym my portion sizes have decreased and I am eating a hell of a lot more fruit and veg. I’ve also started keeping a “CM Journal.” This isn’t something crazy that I’m going to become obsessed with. But every Wednesday I’m going to measure my waist, hips, bust and thighs to see how I’m pushing a long. 

I’ve been taught that if you’re wanting to get fitter loosing CM’s is just as important as loosing weight. 

I hope this is something for you to think about. 

Until next time,
