My name is Kaitlin, and I am fat.
This needs to end, and not as a "New Years Resolution," but as a lifestyle change. I've always been a yo-yo'er- and so in order to get out of those bad habits, I have done my research, and hired a trainer. Jeff McDole, will be whipping me into shape, and helping me adjust not only my diet, but my work out habits. I wanted someone who could help me keep my curves, and give me a strong, athletic tone. I found that in McDole at Family Fun & Fitness in Avon, IN for Nunn Performance Training.
Jeff played baseball for many years, and then transitioned into coaching as a graduate assistant at DePauw. There he was given the chance to design strength and conditioning programs for the team as well as coaching the players during their workouts.
His major is in Physical Education with a specialization in Coaching. While at Indiana State (getting his MS), Jeff did an internship over the 2009 summer working with athletes across all sports. During his time at Indiana State, Jeff broadened his knowledge in the field of fitness and nutrition.
Someone with this background and experience with training athletes is exactly what I need. I have no desire to be a waif or ridiculously thin, I want to be toned, sexy, and athletic.
I started my work outs yesterday and let me tell you, mama is sore, but I feel great! My first set of workouts are a good mix of cardio and light lifting. He knows how much I love to lift, and so is working me back into it [slowly], thank goodness.
In this blog, I will be laying it all out there with photos, measurements, victories and the days that I have failures. This is the most weight I've ever had to lose, and the biggest changes I've ever had to make. This is the McDole experiment, complete with notes, and public humiliation.
Wish me luck, and follow my experience with a trainer, and the changes I must make. The first measurements, photos, and weight posts will be after week one. Next Tuesday- be watching!
