had my fitting.....thank god

Well on Easter I decided to try my dress on for the girls and it did not fit. I was scheduled for a fitting the following Wed. but obviously had to cancel. So I rescheduled for one month later, yesterday and it fit...thank god! I have been going to a personal trainer for almost 3 months now and I was so upset to discover that my back actually got bigger (muscle mass). Well I told the trainer and for the past month I have boosted my cardio and lightened the weights. It paid off. Girls unless you are happy with your weight and just want to tone up...DON'T USE WEIGHTS! Just do lots of cardio.

Same thing happened to me. I have pictures of my on vacation and my arms look huge. Needless to say, I dumped the trainer because he wouldn't change the routine for me.

Just wanted to add that if you do less weight on a machine (or free weights) with more reps, you will not bulk up too much. You will just get more toned in target areas (say your arms for example). I agree that cardio is important but it's also important to do some sort of strength training because ulimately, this will speed your metatbolism up more in the long run.
