No workout last night...I finished with my last client after 10:00 p.m. and I was so pissed off at another trainer that I couldn't hang out there another minute.

What happened? Well, since you asked, this 18 year old trainer who has been training since April took one of my clients away from me and sold her a 10-pack right in front of me. He's all about the sales and is phenomenal in that area. He didn't need the sales--and he knows if I don't make my minimum by July 31 I am out. When I confronted him before the transaction was complete he told me she'd told him she'd had a bad experience. She seemed quite happy the one day she trained with me, cancelled Monday because she was still sore but she came to me in person on Monday to reschedule. I apologized about the sore muscles and she replied, "Oh, no, it's a good thing" then we put her on the calendar for Thursday evening. I spent unscheduled time with her answering her questions about fat burners and going over the BodyBugg program. There was nothing in her manner to indicate dissatisfaction.

Anyway, her husband is training with this other trainer and he was training with him last night. She was in the vicinity...and just 15 feet from where I was working with another client. She was friendly toward me, smiled and waved. After a while, I noticed the three of them were talking...and while my client and I were setting up her next appointment, this other trainer was sitting at the desk next to me with the couple (my client, his client). I thought it was the husband re-signing and when I asked them about it I learned they were getting the sessions for her. Even if she really had a bad experience and didn't want to train with me, I think it was handled beyond wrong. Doesn't anybody have any scruples anymore? Sometimes I just don't want to live in this world anymore...or maybe 24 Hour Fitness represents the lowest of the low and I should get out while I still have a conscience.

Okay, on a lighter note, I am one pound lighter today. 133 lbs. Can't remember how many years ago I last saw this weight. The flab on my stomach is still there, but my waist and hip measurements are both down.

My macros are getting closer, less fat, more carbs. I'm eating a lot of fruit to bump up those carbs:
