Wow, I'm on cloud 9 today! NSV x 2!

So, I decided today to take up learning free weights with the onsite personal trainer at my gym. When I met up with him he asked me what I wanted to learn, told him how to properly use free weights instead of the Nautilus equipment that I'd been using because I just didn't think it was working my bingo arms enough.

l have done pretty well on my own up to this point, I'm seeing definition in my biceps but that bingo flap is still there; albeit not as heavy as it once was... It is still there and needs some toning up.

He started off by saying that he's been noticing my workouts :blushing: and notices that I have lost a lot of weight :bigsmile: and asked me how much. I told him almost 45 lbs hoping to be there this week and he said I look amazing!!!! :blushing:

So, learn the weights for biceps/triceps and shoulders and then finished my workout and headed to the shower. I was getting ready to start fixing my hair when a lady that I'd met at the gym and spoken with a few times off and on was standing next to me in front of the mirror. She stops what she's doing, turns to me and says "You have lost a lot of weight and you look fantastic!"

:noway: 2 people in less than a 2 hour time period!!!!!!!

Not to mention there is a very successful broker who had his corporate office contact me today because he's extremely interested in having me come and talk with them (I'm a Realtor)!

That's 3 for 3 today and 2/3 were weight loss related!!!!

If anyone needs me, I'm heading out to buy a lottery ticket!!!! :laugh:
