Something incredible happened to me today.
Background: I've been stressing out a bit because I'd decided to cancel my membership with LifeTime given all of the issues I had with the Savage location. The member engagement manager told me I had to send a certified letter or come in to the club to cancel (which I hadn't done yet). I wasn't sure how or what to do on my own and you'd think by this time I would know what in the world I'm doing, but I felt so lost. I was literally in the bathroom at work and prayed. I asked God to give me a sign and show me the way I needed to go. I'd rescheduled my HealthCheck appointment (through Allina/Healthpartners/LifeTime) so that I could just do it early one morning before I started work instead of having to go to the Savage club.
Fast Forward to last night: I was talking to Chad about how I didn't want to get all sweaty before work and I wasn't 100% sure what the HealthCheck entailed so I was going to reschedule it to a Friday or something so it was at least a casual day.
Fast Forward (again) to this morning: When I woke up (late) I didn't see any other option besides to get my ass my gear and get to my HealthCheck and I did. I skipped my shower, got the kids dressed quickly, threw random things in my lunch bag for lunch and we were out the door 10 minutes earlier than normal. I made it to work by 7:15am and my appointment was at 7:30am. I walked in and this adorable dark curly haired gal motioned for me to come in and handed me a questionnaire. My blood pressure was high from running around like a chicken with head cut off all morning, so she had me relax and just casually chat for a few minutes and she asked if I belonged to a gym. I told her TECHNICALLY I was with LifeTime in Savage, but not at all happy with it and she said "I work at the Savage club!" She listened to my concerns and told me a little about her training style and told me she organizes the run club at the club as well as BOOTCAMP and a Weight Loss group. She said she didn't think she had a card, but would check anyway, well guess what....ONE card....she wrote her cell phone number on the card and told me if I changed my mind to give her a call and she would make sure I was taken care of.
I took this as my sign....
A. I hadn't cancelled my membership yet (I was supposed to do it a week ago)
B. I planned to reschedule my HealthCheck, but for some reason felt compelled to go this morning
C. I ended up with a trainer that reminded my of my Tina
D. She just HAPPENS to work at the club I had trouble with
E. I'd gained another 10 lbs....
These are all very clear signs to me that I need to hang on to LifeTime and give them another chance. I think Kathy (my cute little curly haired trainer) walked in to my life at just the right moment. We have an appointment scheduled for Friday evening at 7:30pm. I can't wait!
