Day 2 - The Weigh In!

Ok so I'm onto my day two and I'm still pretty pumped about getting fit and healthy. Now I know you've heard this before, but like I stated in my last post I am a new, more driven Bella. My big example of proving this was at the gym yesterday.

Now for anyone who has ever joined a gym you know you have to go through all the paperwork and the tour of the gym and the machines and such, and then with my new gym in particular you go through your measurements. And when I say measurements, I mean ALL my measurements. I was being poked and prodded everywhere, I mean I think the girl came just short of giving me a colonoscopy (and this was just for signing up at the gym!). Now had this been before the driven Bella showed up I would have shrunk away from the girl, turned beet red, and prayed that the torture was over with soon, but nope, instead I held my head up answered EVERY question truthfully, and did everything asked of me no matter how bad the results were. Oh and trust me, those results were bad. It's one thing to go on the scale at home and weigh yourself and know your fat, it's a whole other thing to have all of your inches, fat, and weight calculated on your body. If the scale didn't open my eyes to the severity of my weight issues, then all the measurements from last night most definitely did. For being 25, my BMI was so high, that it was actually beyond that point where they just stop and say "Anything beyond such and such a number is completely obese and you should feel horrible for yourself."

Ok, so that might have been a little dramatic at the end there, but trust me that's what it felt like when I saw that my number was so high it didn't even get a chart placement anymore. Ouch! So needless to say, after poking and prodding I went straight to the actual workout part of the gym and put my butt into high-gear. Needless to say my bedtime last night was very early. :)
