Day 20 - Big Time

Let's just say that we are soooo sore tonight - but it's a good sore. Got to the gym for our final appointment with Cameron and he took us through the ringer. My mind is a blur but we did a lot of free weights plus our standard routine of machines. Most of the exercizes revolved around our upper body and our arms. The fact that I can even type tonight amazes me but it was well worth it. The fact that our bodies are so out of shape, we decided to give ourselves an early Christmas present and committed to working with a personal trainer twice a week. We get to meet our new trainer next week but we are not sure who that will be yet.

We are making a huge investment in ourselves and not to let ourselves fall into a pattern of quitting. By having the financial portion take a sting, this is extra motivation to make sure that we follow through and do the job that needs to be done. I am really psyched and looking forward to the journey. Hope you stick around to walk with us.

Love you guys!
