gym trim

i went to the gym last night (big surprise) and worked out with my trainer. it turns out that he wasn't leaving until today, so we ended up scheduling a session yesterday to ease my withdrawal.

working out the way i have been has taken a lot of hard work and dedication. i'm also very strict with my diet (except for sunday, but i was persuaded into eating things i normally wouldn't these days) almost to the point of insanity. i have to say that it is all paying off though. i wanted results and i am getting them. the other day, nik told me i am looking skinny. i keep noticing all of my clothes getting looser and looser (i don't own a good pair of ass-hugging jeans anymore... they're all getting loose in the bum!), and my trainer is telling me that i am getting good and lean as well. yesterday, he told me that my hip bones were showing. i also got a compliment from another trainer who told me that i had a really flat stomach! who doesn't want to hear that!?! (a pregnant lady, i suppose. but, that's neither here nor there) so then, later when we were doing some shoulder work, my trainer actually was amazed at how defined my arms and shoulders are getting. i think his exact words were "whoa.". he then proceeded to tell me that all of the other trainers at the gym are asking about me. they're all like "what's going on with jen? what's the deal with jen?" (although, they all call me by my lastname, because apparently that's my 'gym name'... or so i'm told.) my trainer is super protective of me and tells them all to back off. he's a good guy and he also doesn't want people messing with his clients. it could mean the loss of a client to him, so i completely understand his reasoning. i find it all pretty funny. in fact, i was having a hard time pressing the weight i was holding because i was laughing so much when he was telling me.

there are still areas that i want to work harder on and i know my trainer wants me to work on as well. for example, i was doing squats the other day and he gets close to me and starts reaching towards my crotchal region. naturally, i am wondering what he is up to and am a little thrown off. he proceeds to poke my inner thigh and tell me that we are doing more sqauts. i smile sarcastically, and say 'thanks'.

so, all in all a good monday was had. i am eagerly looking forward to this weekend already. i am having my girls, tik & tet, stay over and have a good weekend planned for them. it should be fun.
