Those four beautiful words

Today, my co-worker said those four magical words people on a quest to do better LOVE to hear, "I can really tell". She didn't have to clarify what she was talking about because her eyes and hands told me she was talking about my body. For some reason, that made my day. Well...the reason was evident.

As a matter of fact, filming begin this afternoon, and I believe Yo really gave them a show. Walking through the doors, it was obvious I was quite irritated because I had hoped to make it there prior to 4 pm to share my reasons as to why I had undertaken this journey. I arrived at 4:56! However, the third member of our trio (male) had waited and the interview began. Afterwards, he and his cameraman followed me as I completed a horrendous (no exaggeration) session with Yo. This is what she had me to do:

• Warm-up (easy)
• Alternating bicep curls (done until she murmered "Stop". )
• RUN around the boxing area 2x
• immediately after run, assume sit up position on the mat
• complete 30 situps
• run two laps
• do 3o step-ups
• run two laps
• back down on the mat for more situps
• push ups (that was the first time I had cursed: "Fuck" and "Shit"! No mercy was given
• barbell
• situps
• standing push up holding this weird rope
• 50 leg presses
• 45 minutes on the Elliptical Trainer.

Stumbling to the bathroom after I arrived home, I decided to weigh myself...drum roll 277.2! I was completely stoked (Do people say that word any longer?)

The real test as to how much I weigh will come tomorrow morning when i "officially" weight myself since that will be on a Thursday. For the record, I have grown fond of cottage cheese and tuna.

An explanation about the fs! I fell asleep and when I came to began deleting, but there were fare too many. So, this is what happens to a forty year old on a quest for a "New Day". Sorry about the fs. Perhaps it will make an interesting story for future use.

I encourage both of you to keep up the hard work, it will pay off in the long run. Question is...can I hold out?
