Don't let the name fool ya...

So, as I mentioned in a previous post, I have hired a trainer to get me in shape and to make my 40's better than ever.  I searched a few places and finally came across Angel.  I figured how bad could she be with the name "angel".  Plus, I have worked with several big, huge, body builders back home so this could not be too bad.  She showed up and is this petite, cute girl with a great figure and kind of a laid back personality.  We started to work out so she could see what kind of shape I'm in and I believe she came to the quick conclusion that I'm in no shape as I have not worked out in about a year and just gave birth to twins.  And yes, I will continue using that as an excuse even though some would say I wasn't really in the best shape of my life when I got pregnant... but this is my blog and I can say what I want.  :-)

Anyway, angel is no angel and she is inflicting pain on me that might be worse than any of the big, bodybuilders that I have hired.  She loves squats and lunges and the first day I thought she was the devil as she made me do 60 of each (keep in mind that I haven't done one lick of exercise in a very, long time).  Now, after only two weeks, I think squats are great and I now know that she really is the devil.  As she has me doing some crazy exercise to build my core, she'll ask me, "does it hurt?"  "Um, I just told you that I have not exercised in a year and just had twins.. uh, yes, it hurts."  Well, who cares?!  Twenty more!  As I'm still on the search of the reason all the Asians here are so little, I'm really hoping this isn't it.

My goal is to be my best and to stay my best as I don't want to be the old, decrepid mother at my daughter's parents night when they hit school.  I'm guessing I'm past the whole MILF days but hopefully I'll at least make them proud that I'm their mom.  And hopefully to always make my husband proud to say I'm his wife!

My biggest supporters!

  1. I dont think that going to the gym will make you a greater wife or mother and Iknow those girls will be proud of their mom. Although, It will make you more healthy to be able to chase after them. I think you are beautiful!
