Our short lived relationship was less than 2 weeks! I went to meet with him on Tuesday night and just like that he was deleted his name off my little calender. He said something about "It's not you, it's me" - something about moving to a new location, the location was better for him, and blah blah. I tuned him out. All I could hear was the sound of my internal cries.
So, the search begins again. sigh. big sigh. Its so hard to find a trainer. Sure, the gym is full of them, but ya really gotta connect with a trainer. It's not just about handing me a weight and telling me to do something. It's a relationship. I'll keep you posted!
(I know I know, I'm a drama queen...haha! I'm really not THAT upset)
Happy Weekend!
I mentioned yesterday, Carlos niece came in last night - she lives in Boston. I am so excited to hang out with her, she is so fun! Not sure what today & the weekend will entail but just know there will be some fun pictures, lots of food (as always) and good stories next week!

My goal this weekend is to not let my break-up with my trainer and a our out-of-town guest derail me. Weekends still count in the game of health!
Fruit 2 Day
I don't drink juice. Really. I don't. Not a fan of OJ. Apple juice doesn't do it for me. Banana, Pineapple, strawberry, kiwi combo juices taste fine but not enough to go out and buy it. So when my friend, Sherri from Single Edition asked if I would try something called Fruit2Day, I was hesitant. But I said sure. It came with a pretty powerful claim of having 2 servings of fruit in each container but for only 110-120 calories. The website says: "A new way to eat fruit: So drink it, sip it, chew it and enjoy two servings of fruit like you never have before!"

Alright kids, Happy 4th of July for my U.S. Readers - and for everyone, another challenge update already right around the corner! See ya Monday!

He broke up with you? What's not to like?
LOL!
Hope you find a trainer you click with soon!
Have a Happy 4th!
Sorry about your trainer - I totally get how having the right one can make or break your workouts. I hope you find a good one soon!
Definitely frustrating about the trainer! I'm sure you'll be able to find one that you can make a good connection with. It will just be trial and error, i guess :)
Have a wonderful 4th!!
That's a hard thing...change...I think we all can raise our waterbottles on that one. I get so mad that I push myself away and say forget. Jen, don't do that, there's a special trainer there for you. Plus you could be a trainer yourself...no I'm not kidding with you. You know what you need to do.
I do hope you have a great week end. Hi to Lenera. I'm sure she's going to have fun. I can tell by the smile. Plus you have Carlos to add to the pot. Carlos is full of giggles and kicks.
Love you
Mom
I may try the juice but I'm a fan of fruit smoothies
Even though I know you're deeply sad at this moment, you put a smile on my face with your break-up story.
Fruit2Day is being sold in The Netherlands for quiet some years now (Hero is a dutch brand) and I buy it weekly for my lover who doesn't eat fruit very much.
Have a nice weekend too!
JEN! That trainer must have been a full on doofus! Did he not know who you are!?!?!?! HAHA
Happy weekend lovely one xxxxx
That is a bummer about your trainer. But everything happens for a reason and I am sure that someone great will walk into your life soon !!!! Don't let it get you down. Have a fun weekend ! Happy 4th !
So true...I LOVE my trainer he's always at the gym so he's checking on me even when we dont have sessions together. He's cute as a button too so that helps :)
Thanks so much for the kind words of encouragement yesterday-I really needed them. Have a great weekend!
Drama! Jen! I started reading the post and after the first couple of words I started getting scared and thinking you and Carlos broke up and I was screaming (in my head so my husband didn't think I was nuts) NOOOOOO!
Glad that my fears are incorrect. Now onto the trainer.....say what?? Obviously HE has issues. Good luck finding someone SOOO much better! I can totally relate in not wanting to change up your routine once you are used to it. I am struggling with that RIGHT now (and haven't had the energy to blog about it, but a post is in the works).
Hmm, those fruit drinks/cups look good. Something totally up my alley. I will have to keep my eye out for those at the store.
Happy 4th Jen!!!
**Sending positive vibes into the atmosphere so that you find the perfect trainer**
Have a wonderful weekend Jen!!!!
It's kismet that you would write about your trainer today. I have a trainer story that I wrote and now, I've linked to you!
:-)
Have a GREAT 4th!
okay not going to lie i totally thought you were talking about Carlos and I was near tears.. phew! but i'm sorry to hear about your trainer :(
Holy crap! You silly girl. I thought your were talking about Carlos!!!!
That is frustrating though. Good luck finding the new trainer!!! I can kick your butt via email and blogger if you want ;).
OMG you scared me so much at first I thought you were talking about you and Carlos and my heart literally stopped beating. Don't scare me like that!
Sorry about the trainer. There are many more, you will be fine! Glad you liked the juice. You should go to a juice stand one day and try a green juice, I think you'd be surprised by how much you like it!
His loss not yours my friend, you'll find a better one!
Lame. You'll find a new trainer. Its hard to find the right one, I know, but you will!
Ahh I thought it was Carlos too! So scary! Sorry about your trainer though! Hopefully you find another great one!! I had the grape Fruit2Day this morning! They are so freakin good!
Rejection is a great thing. It opens the door to allow what's best for you to come walking through ... believe it!
the packaging totally looks like something they had in germany a few years ago... not quite sure if they do anymore but intersting...may go check out the website!
I KNOW A GOOD TRAINER! :) Miss ya hun.
Sorry to hear about your trainer. You will have to blog on your journey to finding a new one :)
I broke up with McDonalds for good a year and a half ago, but we were off and on for five years!
Every time I would stay away, McDonalds would come back to me. I looked at McDonalds and would say "You had me at McRib!"
What an idiot I was! I am glad it is over, just like you and your trainer!
I'm sorry he broke up with you. He is obviously clueless.
OMG...I don't even know you, but at first I thought you were referring to your boyfriend and I was like...O NO! Y'all look cute together.But then it turned out to be your trainer and I was relieved.
aww im sorry to hear about your trainer :(
what a jerk! you can do WAYYY better :)
I'm so sorry about the break-up. You'll find another one soon...I hope. Like you said, it can be quite frustrating trying to find one that you can truly feel a connection with. Now, Fruit2day...never heard of it. It sounds like an interesting product though. Thanks for sharing.
Here is a song for you to listen to

Love Mom
I hope that worked
Well, if that's how he is going to be than you are better off without him! Hope you find a good trainer soon!
