Note to self: Ten-huh!

I attended my first session at a Seattle fitness boot camp - a combination of hard exercise and nutritional coaching held outdoors, rain or shine, Monday through Thursday mornings 7-8:15 a.m. for four weeks.

The coach definitely knows what she's doing and is appropriately supportive and helpful, which gives me great hope for some real progress over the next month. I've wanted to be part of an exercise program that keeps me accountable as well as receiving proper coaching and nutrition guidance, and sure enough - I found it just last week, in time for today's starting date.

After the physical assessment/evaluation this morning, I was surprised I'm in as good a shape as I am. I've taken some *serious* time off walking and working out as much as I had been enjoying earlier this year, and I'd much rather be writing than dashing about. But it's time to buckle down, restructure my schedule and re-establish my healthiest form.

If my experience this morning is any indication, I'm on my way!

Please remember this upbeat post as I start to grumble and mumble and curse and grouse as the end of the four weeks approaches .. ;-)
