My name is Sharon and I have a confession to make. I can no longer button my pants. The fact that I am a personal trainer and cycle instructor makes this an even more difficult confession. I should also mention I’m getting married at the end of the summer. I don’t consider myself a vain person, but a girl likes to look good for her wedding. Rather than fighting frustration, or blaming my washer and dryer, I decided to follow the advice I give people every day. I’m going to work with a personal trainer. Join me over the next six weeks as I travel this exciting personal journey. I will share my experiences, successes, and pitfalls (there are bound to be some) along the way. Through my journey, find something that inspires you and make it yours. I love my workouts! I actually look forward to Monday mornings. Allison has been gradually, but consistently, progressing me each time I train. You never truly know what you can accomplish until you try.

Sharon’s Wedding Fitness Journey: I’ve Lost 3 Pounds!

I love my workouts! I actually look forward to Monday mornings. Allison has been gradually, but consistently, progressing me each time I train. Although I slightly gasp every time I see her add more weight, she never gives me more than I can handle. You never truly know what you can accomplish until you try. Allison has also added little surprise challenges each week – squat jumps, power push-ups, and other unexpected moves.

Not wishing to negate the good I accomplish during training, I changed the way I eat as well. I reduced my pretzel intake (can’t eliminate them from life completely) and increased my lean protein and veggie consumption.

Combined with exercising smarter, I was able to lose weight. I also feel better! A constant motivator: My wedding dress. Let’s just say it’s “fitted.”

A few extra pounds could make wedding-day breathing difficult.

Regardless, I am giving myself two more weeks until I try on those pants again.
