End of an Era

So today marked the end of my personal training era.  For the past year I have been working non-stop with a personal trainer and it has been awesome for my weight loss.  I wouldn't take back any of the time or money spent.  It was worth every penny.  I am finally to the point that I feel like I need to try this on my own.  It is now or never and if I can't keep up the workouts and the commitment to myself without paying someone to torture me, then I have really learned nothing in the past year.  I will admit that it is a little scary to go out on my own and see if I have what it takes to motivate myself and push beyond my perceived limits.  I am contemplating a few things to possibly ease me into this new phase of my weight loss.  There is always the option of group training classes that are less expensive than one-on-one sessions.  I can also attend various classes like Zumba and kick boxing, or even sign up for a boot camp or two.  At this point it is about proving to myself that I am able to keep going without someone holding my hand and pushing me.  It is time for me to be a big girl and show myself how bad I really want these last 25lbs before I spend even more money on my weight loss journey.  Tomorrow will be my first test.  I usually met with a trainer every Wednesday morning and that held me accountable to showing up to the gym.  Tomorrow morning I will not have that accountability.  Will I still wake up and work out or will I take advantage of sleeping in and really only cheat myself out of reaching the goals I have set for myself?? Stay Tuned....
