$1300 gives me a kick in the ass and a deluxe gym bag
Seriously.
Signed up for another 25 personal training sessions today. Cringed as they processed my credit card (which I still haven’t paid off from the vet bills of Wylie/Enrique combined) Told myself that when I’m a bodacious size 10 again, it’ll all be worth it. Laughed when they gave me a deluxe looking gym bag, when all I really wanted was a stiff drink.
However, I have been informed that there’s a contest (we all know that I get uber competitive) It’s like the Biggest Loser at the gym, for those that are enrolling in a new set of personal training. In 25 sessions (must be used within 4 months) they evaluate how much weight and inches you have lost (in body comparison…so obviously the 300lbs person will lose more than the 150lbs person, so they take that into consideration)
Anyways, the “winner” gets a $1500 shopping spree gift certificate to one of the malls, or $2000 in personal training (so about 40 sessions or something like that)
It’s a goal anyways! And even if I don’t win, its probably enough to keep me motivated and to keep on trucking :P
Giving Enrique the day off today. I was going to go out and just take him around the racetrack, but I realize that I’m not in the frame of mind to have a “light” day, so better I just give him a break than drive us both crazy trying to micromanage my riding (especially as he’ll be ridden the next 7 days straight. Poor pony is going to be wiped out). Have a lesson tomorrow, and then we are heading out later on Wednesday evening. We need lots of luck! I tell myself that we are better than we were in March, where we did Test 1 and 2 and got a 61 and 60…but I also have this sad little reminder that he had almost a month off and hasn’t rebuilt the muscles that he lost :\ But I suppose we can only do our best. And if we don’t make regionals, there’s always next year, right?
