    With me actively exercising and lifting weights, no. If I wasn't doing those things and showed no interest then yes, I might have been offended. He knows it's something I'd like at this point in my life though so I'd actually be thrilled.
  • Nope not at all :)

    No, because my husband knows that I am interested in improving my health and working towards certain goals. If I wasn't working towards these goals or showing other signs that it would be something I like then probably. Think of why you want to give the gift. Do you think the person should get it because you think he or she needs it or because s/he wants it??

    It depends, I'd be really excited now. If it was a year ago, I would have been pist.

    If you didn't ask for it and clearly were not all that interested in fitness and exercise... yeah... maybe a bit.

    That being said, if my bf got me personal training sessions I would be completely stoked!

    Do you guys actually buy real gifts for Valentines? We just treat it as a made up thing, get cards at best and usually a little token or a gift we can use together.

    Now no because we both are working on improving our fitness together and he supports me. A few years ago... yes I would have been like ummmmmmmm thanks you think I'm fat??? I had a bf tell me once I was "pleasantly plump". Omg I had never been called plump before in my life! and I never will again.

    Not offended, but disappointed because that's not what I want.

    not as long as I get to come home to this

    hot dogs + sharp cheddar + lean hamburg + Thick cut hickory bacon + Sweet Baby rays bbq s

    is this some sort of sociological study?

    IT IS!

    i know an arm chair sociologist when i see one!!!

    ...you post this everywhere today....

    It has been interesting to watch as, this morning, people would get distracted by it and start to comment on it or post other things, and as the day has progressed, people have ignored it more and more, until it has come full circle to being an effective hijack because it's been done so much people are wondering if it means anything, and if so - what?




    (hint: it doesn't mean any more than bacon is awesome)

    It currently lives in about 30 different forum posts

    I fear I am missing the joke. Is it funny to someone, somewhere?
    yup, refer to pretty much all responses to it

    I'm taking that to mean "no"

    I've talked about losing weight and becoming more fit, and my s/o has noticed that my diet has changed and the pounds are falling off. If I was gifted that, I'd be elated! They're attentive and they care, and they know that it's important to you- unless of course you haven't talked about losing weight, and they did it because they're mean spirited (unlikely).

    My wife calls me a p*ssy when I fail a PR attempt or rest too long between sets, so how could a PT session be any worse?

    Oh hell nah. That **** aint cheap, I'd probably have to buy them something on top of their gift so we'd be 'equal', lol

    As $$$ as personal training sessions are and considering that he knows I'm trying to lose weight, definitely not offended. I would want to choose the trainer though. :flowerforyou:
