Boot Camp

Liz and I started an exercise "boot camp" this past Monday. It's held at the Los Angeles Athletic Club in downtown L.A. Two of Liz's bridesmaids are also participating in the boot camp.

Classes are every Monday evening, Wednesday evening, and Saturday morning. The boot camp lasts for six weeks; Liz and I will miss the last two weeks because we'll be on our honeymoon :)

After our second class tonight, I'm pretty wiped out. Our instructor wears a military-type jersey and an army hat. He makes people do 25 push-ups if they are late to the class, don't follow his instructions, or forget other students' names. He's tough.

I hope the rigors of being an exercise grunt are worth it! I've done one spin class in my life, and had a couple of sessions from a personal trainer. Other than that, I've never done any sort of organized exercise class before, and have always done running and weights on my own.

My goal is to lose a couple of inches from my tummy. The pants on the tuxedo I bought a couple of months ago are too tight :( So I either have to trim my love handles, or get my tuxedo pants let out. Either way, with only 30 days until the wedding, it's literally crunch time.
