Twenty-somethings

My company has a gym in our office and a full-time trainer.  I know!  The trainer holds group classes during lunch that are a mix of cardio and strength training.  I've been going occassionally, but I don't really enjoy them all that much.  I'm debating on just quitting, so here are the pros and cons.

Pros:  It's an easy way to mix up what I'm doing.  When I do weight training on my own, I seem to do the same exercises over and over.  I'd have to be much more pro-active about finding new exercises, and frankly, I don't have the time or interest for that.

It's sort of a no-brainer and very convenient (if I remember to pack my stuff).

Cons:  The trainer is as sweet as she can be, but she is really talkative.  Probably my most favorite thing about working out is the QUIET.  Can I get an "amen" from the other moms out there?  I love to work out or run all alone and not have to give anything to anyone else, even if it's just holding up my end of the conversation.  Exercise time is MINE and I don't want to share it with anyone. 

The Twenty-somethings from the Marketing department.  Again, they're also very sweet, but being around them doesn't make me feel good about myself.  They are all very thin, young, and well dressed.  And it's hard not to feel like Frumpy Mom next to them.  I fully realize that it has NOTHING to do with them - it's all me and in my head.  But still, it does make working out less enjoyable. 

So should I just quit going or just accept it?

I wanted to take a picture of my yummy lunch, but I was so hungry I scarfed it down before I thought about it.  I made roasted edamame salad (I'd link to it but the Food Network is apparently making you register to view recipes) for our family Labor Day gathering on Sunday, and brought the leftovers home with me for lunches this week.  It wasn't a huge hit with the family, but I was expecting that.  The salad didn't turn out quite as well as last time I made it.  I think it needs more olive oil and the basil I got almost had a minty flavor to it.  Anyhow, I just tossed it over some red quinoa and it was still tasty.  Breakfast was greek yogurt with chia and flax seed and blueberries.  Dinner will be a tomato and avocado sandwich on whole wheat.

Edit to add:  Dinner ended up being a tomato, avocado, and egg sandwich.  Sort of an odd combination.  It would have been better with more thinly sliced tomato and more salt.  And a Babybel gouda cheese.
