So...it's been just over the 12 weeks I was supposed to be on my whole health & fitness program. Remember my promise [threat] to post before and after pictures? Well....that's been delayed. I was having awesome results my first 8 weeks of the program [I was showing results at the end of week 8 that would have been satisfactory for a 12 week program], and then life hit. With the move I was set back a little, and I haven't been able to fully pick it up again. After four visits of no results [i.e. stagnation - love that word], my trainer and I had the following conversation at this week's visit:
[Trainer]: Is it harder to do the program now that Jeff's not doing it?
[Me]: A little. There's only one of us making the food now, and it gets harder and harder to get to the gym. I don't really blame it on Jeff not being on the program. Just the current state of my life.
[Trainer]: I know you feel you could do better.
[Me]: Yeah. I hope to get on track this week.
[Trainer]: So...would you rather just pick this up again in January? [keep in mind I still have 5 week paid for].
[Me]: ___________ [speechless, but a little giddy about the thought of going through the holidays without feeling like I have this monkey on my back and the feeling that I'm just wasting money. I wonder if my huge smile gave this away]
[Trainer]: I won't even charge for this session [what is he desperate to get rid of me?]. Why don't we just stop things for now and you pick it back up in January? Here we can schedule it now.
That's right people. He's given up on me. Perhaps it had something to do with the fact that the client who had the appointment for me was my trainer's star client [she just won Ms. Utah in some sort of body building competition]. He goes from talking to her, then in comes little Miss No Results me.
Oh well. My body has enjoyed eating everything in sight this weekend. Oh, and we got reacquainted with our little friend Kraft Macaroni and Cheese. Twice. It's only temporary [or so I tell myself]. My goal is to go back in January leaner than I am now. Good luck to me. I love holiday food too much!

I love holiday food too... diets are evil during the holidays...
So wierd of him to do that. No wonder you look so good, I am terrified of what this baby is going to do to my body.
But it seems like the right choice for you... holidays are for guilt-free eating!
That's so funny... or is it? I guess it is funny, but then again... maybe he is trying to save you some money because he knows that the month of Thanksgiving to Christmas pretty much botches everyone's affects of trying to stay healthy.. ? Maybe?
You really do look amazing. And I had so much fun with you. I think every time I come up I'll make it a point to see you and Amber and Victoria. You are beautiful!
when i saw you i thought you looked incredible for your little boy being only 5 months old! actually, i thought you looked so awesome + loved the top that you were wearing, and went out and bought it.
lame? yes. whatever. i have fashion issues + need someone to dress me.
since ali and whitney have been here, they've been talking non-stop about this thing called exercise, eating right + portion control. i'm thinking i need to look into that!
Alexis is scared? I think we should kick her teeny tiny hiney. Sheesh.
You do look awesome, and I love the idea of taking a break over the holidays.
Ashley, I was actually at dinner thinking how amazing you looked, and how much I wanted to shove more food down your throat because I was bitter and jealous.
You= 1 baby
Me= No baby
And you look a million times better than me.
i haven't actually met you in person, but i think you look great too! ;)
please tell me this isn't going to halt our excursion to the best mexican restraunt one day in the near future.....
You totally look great! haha well maybe it's better that way so you dont have to feel guilt during the holidays blegh!
