That's not supposed to happen...

So after my first week of being a member of the gym in Baden I've gained a pound?? Admittedly I didn't have a fantastic diet but not any worse than other weeks, and I've worked out for 3.5 hours this week (also not amazing but you've gotta start somewhere!) and I gained a pound. Boo. I'll just hope its fat becoming muscle and keep on keepin' on. Of course now its the holiday season which means wonderful delicious sweets everywhere! Who starts seriously trying to lose weight between Thanksgiving and Christmas? Crazy. But maybe it will make me feel guilty enough to not overindulge when I go home for Christmas.

No turning back

So I decided to motivate myself by joining the gym in Baden. Nothing like giving someone else your money to motivate you to take advantage of whatever you are paying for...so on Thursday I meet with a trainer to have my "orientation" of sorts and develop a fitness plan. At least I'll have some sort of direction and relative confidence that what I'm doing will have positive affects.
