A new leaf on life

I have decided to try a new road for my life. On Saturday, I joined a gym to continue my pool workouts. With that membership came a complementary session with a personal trainer. Oops. Yesterday, I had that session and now I am signed up for 3 sessions a month for the next year. That's a little tough on the budget especially since my wife just went through so much to get us a little ahead and now we're back. Yikes. But, this is something that I am very excited about. I have been wanting to get in shape forever. We, of course, are working on things that will improve my quality of life and hopefully get me off the pain meds.

Honestly, I got a little scared when my doctor mentioned that the next step would be a surgery where they snipped nerves in my leg. Time to try turning my life around without modern medication. So, here we are working out 6 days a week at the gym and 3x a month with a personal trainer. Gotta admit that the idea of losing 45 pounds and toning my body really make it worth while too. I would really love to look sexy for my wife again.

Then, energy to play with my daughter without hurting during every move - sweet!

Hope to keep everyone updated.
