Well on my way!
Tags: school, courses, dietician, personal trainer, internet

Well on my way! As a few of you may already know, I am taking online courses both for my B.Sc in Dietetics and Nutrition, and to be a personal trainer.  So far I have aced my 1st 2 courses, and now we can add course number 3 to the perfect pass list.

I am very eager to continue to learn and share the new information I am discovering.  School is actually a great place when you want to be doing it.  Too bad I did not have this motivation when I was 19 but hey, my B.Comm will never be a bad thing to have.

Now I want to slowly start offering help to others to start getting ready fo my eventual career change from running a company (which I will still do) to being a fitness trainer and dietician.

Has anybody else done these courses online?

Aced #2
Tags: school, exams, courses, internet

So I did my 2nd exam online tonight, and although this was way tougher, and longer than the 1st one, I managed to ace it.   100% yet again!

I was never a bad student in school, but I was never at the top of my class either.  I must say I am quite proud of myself.

Only 14 more to go...lol

My course arrived
Tags: courses, nutrition, fitness training, school, internet

    Hooray for technology and the internet.  I cam home today and the first package for my course was here.  I am very excited to be studying nutrition and fitness, and really am looking forward to learning.

I was never a big fan of school, and I don't think I am a huge fan of working 9-5 either.  I am an entrepeneur and do what I need to do, but still, what better way to spend a day than teaching people about nutrition, helping them workout, and improve thier health and their lives.

I know this course is a take at home interent course, and not as "great" as going to school, but I have 2 kids and time is valuable... besides, if I went to evening school, where would I fit in the gym?

I am hoping once this course through ICS is complete, to take 2 other courses offered by ISSA.  I would love to take their certified trainer course, and their performance nutrition course.

Does anybody else have experinece with at home schooling.  I would love to get some tips and hear some stories, be them good or bad.

I will keep you all posted on my nutrition evolution.

Lost in a sea of information
Tags: weight loss, diet, muscle building, help wanted, internet

Ok, so I lost 8 pounds and 3.5 inches all by myself. That is pretty good, but it is only a start. Now that I am in better shape than I was 3 weeks ago, its time to revamp my workout and change my diet a bit.
Going online you find thousands of articles about food, weightloss, muscle gain and millions of other related topics. However, it is hard to find 2 articles that support the same theory.
I spent the last 3 weeks eating very healthy, low carb, low sugar, high fiber, high protein diet. My biceps and chest did grow slightly. My gut dissolved and needs to continue.
I am now setting a new goal, and would love as much advise as possible. I am in this to look good, feel good, and most important, to be healthy!
