I shouldn't have joined so quickly, but it was too hard to resist. Scotty and I talked about it last night *some*. He's not too happy with me right now. He wanted to talk about it some more before I took the leap and paid the money. He would have said yes so what does it matter? He basically told me yes last night otherwise I wouldn't have done it.
It wasn't near as expensive as I imagined. I get 2 hours of childcare per day and their daycare part is open all day. That's a HUGE selling point. From past experience, Scotty knows I will use the gym. I was at LOA pretty much everyday and they didn't have much to offer. They have an indoor AND outdoor pool. OMG!! I can't even describe to you how awesome this facility is. I'm incredibly excited about going. Well, shoot...this is it Lifetime Fitness. Just click on any of those and it has a bunch of pictures and virtual tours. (for those who haven't been in one) Ours has all of these amenities. You have to check out the kiddie part. They have indoor/outdoor play structures, computers, a basketball court, rock climbing..... They try to sell you the 'smart start' which gives you time with a personal trainer, dietician, etc. I think you get 5 hours for $200. I feel I really need this, but I can't afford it right now and it goes up to $360 after Monday . I will get the basic body age assessment and go from there. Maybe eventually I can get a personal trainer. Anyway, I'm really excited about it. They offer swim lessons for kids so I can put Ethan in daycare and send Maddie and vice versa. It's going to be awesome this summer with the kids. They have a spa so I can get my hair and nails done there while the kids are playing. I can't wait!!!! It truly is the best of both worlds. I get to do things with the kids and get some time for myself (improving my health). |

Sounds nice. We have a fitness center in our city that reminds me of that one. It's nice, but I'm not a gym person.
I'm sure the kids will love it too. -------------------- ~*Karen*~

I'm a member of lifetime and have been for sometime now. Its a wonderful place to be a part of. My kids love it too! With my gym they have a little carnival during halloween and everything.
Its a great place for me to unwind too!!!! I hope you love it as much as I do!! |

Awesome! We belong to the Lifetime Fitness in our area too in addition to the YMCA. However, I am having difficulty finding time to use the facility what with our schedules- I'm hoping in summer, this can change!
Our facility here is beautiful and open 24 hrs too- my husband loves that he can go work out at 3 am if he wants to Good for you for joining! Trust me, you're gonna LOVE IT! -------------------- |
