Introduction to my Battle of the Bulge!

I’m not afraid to admit it.  I’m a loser!  Even my best friend knows it!  He’s the one who entered me into the “Are You in Love with a Loser” contest over at Body Solutions.  When they called to tell me I was a “loser”, I thought, “Great!  Now everybody knows it!” But that’s not necessarily a bad thing, is it?

According to my best friend, I’m smart, talented and fiercely loyal.  If you ask me, I’ll tell you I’m a ninja warrior…. at least I am in my head.  So now I’m trying to get my body aligned.

Going into battle, I need to make sure my weight loss equipment is intact:
  • Weight loss goals? Check
  • Body Solutions philosophy? Check
  •  Knowledgeable personal trainer? Check
  •  Support system? Check
  • Baby carrots? Check
  • Heart rate monitor? Check
  • Will power? Check
  • Motivation: Check
Stay tuned as I chronicle my weight loss journey; the ups, the downs, the sizes, the pounds.  Trust me, I’m well-prepared.  I have my sports bra on and I’m ready for battle!

*Trainer Talk: Hello, internet!  My name is Dan McGrath and I am Chezon’s personal trainer at Body Solutions.  Although this blog will mainly be about her weight loss journey, I will be sprinkling in some tips, rationale and general witty commentary along the way.  I’m very excited to be working with Chezon – as you can already see, she’s quite the character!  Having a motivated, upbeat, funny client always makes my life easier!  Lets all cheer Chezon on.. she’s going to do great!

  1. Changing life's habits is a major challenge, but having inspiration, motivation, encouragement and most importantly a plan success is well within view. Che it seems you've designed a well thought out, and especially well arranged map for success. I'll be watching closely, and stealing some of your motivation along the way as well. Keep me posted of your progress...standing in line behind you @ the grocer, gym and life!

  4. Follow up....

    Just completed week two of my progression toward a healthier life style...

    Thanks for the advice, I needed a two-handed hold, my PT had some tragic family concerns, delaying my initiation into a Healthy Me! But we are now on tract, if by tract one can admit openly that there are muscles in places previously unknown. :P

    I'll keep you posted on my progress in qualifying into ninjahood. In the meanwhile, I'm standing in line behind you @ the grocer, gym and life! keep kicking
