not so skinny jeans.

I'm seriously convinced that Darin Starr is a saint. He is 100000% the best personal trainer on the planet. There needs to be a support group called "I deal with Vanessa on a semi-regular basis", because Lord knows I'm no peach. If you have ever considered getting a trainer but weren't completely sure, let me assure you that if I can do this, I'm SURE you can too. It can be kind of pricey but it's really an investment in yourself. Drop him a line and at least talk to him! the consultation is free and I promise it's not the least bit awkward. If it is, you have my permission to find me and punch me in the face.

Thursdays workout was 100x better than the last, mostly because I was a little less stressed. I know I mention it every blog post, but I am SO. SICK. OF. SQUATS. I wish I knew how to say that in spanish because I would say that in espanol with my caps lock on, too. I like squats better than lunges, so I guess I'll count my little blessings and move on with my life. I need to stop complaining about stuff because a)I pay good money to work out with him, and b)I have a personal trainer. #firstworldproblems. Like. I have someone who specifically makes workouts for me and talks to me about nutrition and his whole job is to make sure that I'm doing exercise stuff right. I sound like a princess, and a ingrate at that.

Anysquats, I took myself to the gym saturday and specifically avoided leg exercises because I'm sick of them. I did straight arm pulls, face pulls, body weight rows, push ups and 3pt rows. I feel kinda impressed with myself when I'm messing with machines to do exercises, like changing handles and moving the hooks and all that. It's like I actually know how to do something. Who knew?!
I actually am having physical symptoms with my stress. which means I need to chill the eff out.

in other (good) news. I fit in to a pair of jeans I couldn't 2 months ago :) I accidentally picked up the wrong pair from my floor and when I got them on, I was like uh these aren't the ones I thought I had. They were a size smaller. It made me feel like all this was/is worth it. I keep waiting for them to be too small, but every time I put them on, they fit. :) they are my not so skinny jeans, but they fit! and that's what matters.

I promise. I PROMISE. I will get back on a blogging schedule.
:)
