It is already turning hot here in Tucson (should hit 100* by the end of the week) so I may have to make adjustments to the schedule so that I am watching the sun rise while exercising.....

Wow Jo, having a trainer like that can't be very motivating for you..
i've seen some trainers act that way towards their clients at the gym i go to, and i really can't grasp the need to make someone feel bad - or what they think that does for someone..
i think it's amazing that you push yourself to exercise despite the rudeness though.. good for you that you care about your health more, but hope you find someone that will be better for you, you don't deserve that..

if it were me, i would smile and be super nice and drive him crazy.. i work with a lot of negative people and my goal each day is "kill em with kindness" .. ♥
