Ahhh
Good exercise day. Very good. Especially since I got laid off from my job today and was very, very close to just coming home to be sad about it but figured there was nothing on tv and nothing at home so I might as well go to the gym. Elliptical and Ski-Machine were the main two. I'm scared of weight lifting. I'm honestly scared of it now because of the insane pain I was just in. I don't know when to add it back and what weight I should be lifting. I suppoose soon I'll have the time to resolve this issue but I don't want to put it off too long. Its not the weight that will hurt me. Its the me being silly and doing too much. Just gotta find a nice balance. Thing is...its hard to know if you're pushing yourself or injurying yourself until its too late and you're in pain. It wasn't my trainer but it was a personal trainer that pushed me to add more weight on sooooo I'm not per se trusting of them at the moment. Anyhoo I'm just being silly. Anyhoo my daily calories.... Well they were greatly in check till I came home and Doubled them. Ahhh still pretty good for the day (1,030). I wanted to do Yoga but it seems insanely expensive. Maybe I can get the dvds. Actually I do have some dvds. I'll try them out this weekendish. I want to lose 80 pounds between now and May 1st. I think this is entirely possible though hard. I don't feel like I'm pushing myself enough. Hmm.

You might want to find a trainer who you get along with to give you advice about numbers for weights and reps. And to show you the correct form, which is really important to prevent injury!

I agree with
If your not under contract with your PT definately go shopping for a new one because it's really not acceptable that they would design you a program that your body is not ready for causing injury. If under contract maybe advise you gym the situation and see if they will step in to get it released because you will get another trainer within their gym or put it to them that you would consider leaving the gym for another with the experience you have had with their trainer.
I wish you all the best. Dayna
