Fitness on the brain, as always.
I have not been the best example that I could be when it comes to fitness. It really bothers me too. What kind of trainer am I if I can't practice what I preach? It's one of my biggest pet peeves with trainers, not being good examples. My nutrition has been great, but it's finding the time & energy to exercise. I used to bark at all of my clients about finding the time. "I find the time to shower & brush my teeth in the morning, it's the same thing. You can find the time to exercise". For the most part this is true, but to a new mom...I must have been on crack if I told any of them this.

Wearing "real" clothes yesterday really bothered me. I still don't fit into my pre-pregnancy jeans (at least I can get them over my huge butt & hips now, I just can't get them zipped or buttoned). It's a re-confirmation on what I already know. Weight doesn't mean jack. It's just a dumb number. I'm 3 lbs away from my pre-pregnancy weight, but I'm about 13 lbs away from my pre-pregnancy shape. I can get this done in a month to a month & a half. It's not going to be hard, I just have to do it. Hmmm, sounds familiar (God, I'm turning into my clients!).

Well, so much for "striking while the iron is hot" with the fitness competition. Bill is doing really well though. He's lost between 10 to 15 lbs. His nutrition has been good too, but has slacked on the work outs a bit due to time. Next week he'll be forced to take a 3 hour lunch break, so he's re-committing. I haven't made his "6 pack abs plan" yet either, so I'll have to get that done for the both of us this weekend. Plus, I think I'm going to make a "Super Nanny" schedule for myself. Maybe it will make it easier to get everything that I need done during the day.

I might be taking on a few jobs as well. While we were at the gym yesterday, one of our really good friends came in to workout. He & Bill are talking about starting a side business together. This friend was our mortgage broker when we bought our house & Bill used to be a broker too. So, they might start their own firm. Bill mentioned that I would be the accountant (yuck). It is something I could do while I'm at home, but still, how boring. Then our friend mentioned that his mom was finishing up with some rehab for her knees. He wanted me to start training her so her knees stay in good shape. I have a lot of biomechanical back ground & I was the "rehab specialist" in the gym, so this is easy for me. We might start training on the weekends. I really didn't think I was going to "work" again, but it looks like I might. Maybe training other people will get my butt in gear too. I don't want to be the "out of shape" trainer in there.
