So I just signed up for 9 more weeks with a trainer I have been working with and figured I would share some info...
I had trained with a woman at my gym who was great but it wasn't working...I was actually gaining weight (no, it wasn't muscle.) and was miserable. I stopped working with her because i was spending 35 bucks a session and not seeing the results i wanted.
I did some research and decided that I didn't need someone to work out with me since I know how to have proper form and will push myself, but I did need someone to tell me what workouts to do and what nutrition I should be giving myself. I found a woman who is an online personal trainer. At first I was like 'Huh? this won't work' But it totally has and I am so excited about it. For 9 weeks she charges 225 dollars (25 dollars a week.) She sends you a meal plan and workouts customized for you. It includes foods that you tell her you enjoy eating. She also has you send her pictures of yourself so she can see what your body type is so that she can better design your plan. I email her all the time with questions, comments, excitement whatever..she is always quick to write back.
So far, I have done 2 cycles with her and have lost about 15 pounds and lots of inches. I feel so much better and am going to keep up with this until our wedding so that I feel like a beautiful bride! I would put up the before and after pictures but I am a bit embarassed..if you want to see themFM me and I can send you!
her website is trainwithrae.com Just figured I would share!
UPDATE: I have gotten a bunch of FMs...here are the pictures..blah...i blocked out my face cause i am too embarassed1

Re: Personal training..updated with pictures...
thats awesome congrats! Not that you needed to lose before but you really look great. It looks like we have the same body type, I want to lose like 5 pounds and I go to the gym and I feel like its never going to happen...you really can't tell I go to the gym. Is the food she tells you to eat hard to keep up with? Its so easy to eat bad stuff!!

it totally is SO easy to eat bad stuff..I know...i have to admit i really don't splurge too much..maybe once a week I will have a little treat but for the msot part i stick to it. If i feel like I need to have something I try to at least stick to something she tells me to eat. I had been eating pretty healthy to begin with but i needed to know how mcuh of everything and how many times to eat and what to eat when. She asks you the foods you like to eat and creates a meal plan aroud that..
