Help me slim down

Ok here's the problem. I work out at the gym as many times a week as I can. usually 3x. I started working out with a trainer for a few weeks to get my motivation up. Most of the time I eat healthy food. I still can't seem to get my abs in shape and slim down. Any suggestions? I'm also worried that when my sessions end with my trainer, that i'll fall off the wagon.

Re: Help me slim down

i go to the gym 3 times a week and i had trainer....this was last year and i couldnt drop any more weight but i had a layer of fat on my stomach

i started weight watchers 9 weeks ago and i lost 12lbs..i am starting to see my abs more so than last year...i thought i was watching what i was eating boy was i wrong! I go to the gym and i have a trainer

I needed a structured diet with all the exercise..it is soooo paying off!

GOd i feel like a spokesperson for ww...but it is just so great and did wonders for me so far!


good luck

Re: Help me slim down

you said you eat well most of the time. How often is that? You need to eat well, and clean and the right foods 99% of the time and have at least 5 small meals a day.

What is your trainer having you do?

It takes time and patience to get major results. If you stick with it, you will soon see some results and this will be your motivation to keep going.

This is only if you want it bad enough. You have to ask yourself that. Can you imagine how happy you will be with a slimmer waiste? Think of that before you don't eat badly, and decide not to go to the gym.

try tae bo - it is 'core' centered and it tones my belly better than anything

I've wanted to try Tae Bo but the thing is that I need to get out of my house and hit the gym in order to work out. Too many distractions at home.

Thanks for the tips. My trainer is pretty good. He had me do a lot of core exercises and I usually was pretty tired afterward. Had a pretty good workout last night and meeting my trainer tonight. Gotta come up with a workout plan to keep up after my sessions are over and stay motivated.

funny - I'm the opposite...it's easier for me to workout in the comfort of my own home where I can sweat and feel ugly alone :)

Do you go to meetings, or do you just do it at home? I have the books, and stuff.... is it possible to do it without the meetings?
