Amen to that Lucie...In my eyes..If I lost a little weight, that would be a

bonus..but for the first time in my life that is not a motivating factor of

working out..nor is dieting..My only goal at this point in my life..is to eat

healthy for a healthy lifestyle, and to tone up and have a good heart..and of

course to have fun and really enjoy my workout which I do..don't get me

wrong..sometimes the workout is hard cuz I'm tired and sore..but I still love

it...

Who agrees that working out for the sole purpose of losing weight can

sometimes be a let down..

... i agree with u and on that one. I used to weigh

myself every day at home... and having mymeasurements taken like

every

2-3 weeks.... but not anymore.. I have so much fun working out. The

most I focus on is my abs i guess lol... got a sweet 2 pack now..

WOOHOO.. and im always infront of the class if i do a taebo, step,

aerobics class at hte gym.. i wanna see my abs (... OMG.. i wont pass

through the door lol) and to check my form of course... If I lose

the

weight (which I know I will) then great.. if I don't.. i'll still be

in wonderful shape and strong !!! well i think i am now lol

(...) I never expected the inner changes when I started working out.

My goal was weight loss. But like you said, once I stopped focusing

on the outer changes, things started happening for me. Now when

> says " I'm testing your will " it makes me dig down and find

inner strength I didn't know was there. I weigh myself once or twice

a month and I haven't measured in over a month. Those things are

just not as important as they once were. I never thought I'd say

that, but it's true! I still have days when I wish I weighed less,

or fit into smaller sizes, but that's no longer my main focus. And

changing your focus makes all the difference in the world.

who wishes her PT were a cute hunk lol... but she's a great gal...

Lucie,

I think having fun is the most important thing! If we don't have

fun, we most likely won't stick with it. Congrats on getting your

abs in shape! I'll get there someday! LOL! I'm so glad you have

found a good personal trainer! I miss going to the gym. Keep up the

good work, and keep us posted on your workouts with your trainer.
