The Last 20 Lbs Part 7

Life is a balancing act. Sometimes our schedules, due to work and other outside forces, disrupt our routine. For people trying to get back in shape, upheaval can mean that weight and fitness goals are not met for the week, which can lead to frustration and that can lead to disaster. Don’t give up!

Last week, I was walking on air because I had hit the 11 pound marker. Then came two weeks of unending days, deadlines, production and meetings that resulted in no further weight loss for the week, with minimal exercise. At least I didn’t gain any weight back. Learning to maintain a weight is also an important skill to relearn.

To make matters worse, my schedule and Scott’s did not coordinate. I only managed to see him once this week. However, as always a great workout had all the muscles I clearly don’t use, begging for mercy.

Scott was very reassuring and supportive.” It’s not the time to get frustrated and quit. It’s the time to regroup and stay the course!”

It’s taking longer than I thought, but it is happening and I am looking and feeling better, so more of the same will be wonderful.

Scott is a great trainer, knowledgeable, talented, kind, and supportive. I’m so lucky and grateful. If you are trying to get in shape for that swimsuit weather that is just around the corner, I highly recommend calling Scott at Emerge Athletics.
