I started before Christmas with a personal trainer that was doing free classes to drum up business. That has since ceased, since he wasn't getting any (paying) business from it so I've joined the Y.

I don't think I am getting as good of a workout from the Y and I've been bouncing around a few classes. I do like the yoga and the muscle works class, but it's not as intense and I'm (at week 2) starting to feel like maybe I need something more.

Should I maybe add in a session on the eliptical before yoga? I hate that damn thing, though.

I'm eating 4 smaller size meals a day. The trainer I was going to said that your body can't hold more than 4 hours worth of fuel at one time, and that anything extra is just unnecessary intake which leads to fat. I am supposed to eat whole grains, carbs on the lower scale of the glycemic index, fruit and veggies and lean protein.

Protein the size of my palm, good carbs and fruit/veggies the size of my fist.

It was going well the first week or so, but now I seem to be getting hungry in between meals.

I've also found that I have an addiction to fat-free milk. I can't seem to get enough of it, and I think it's because of the sugar (lactose is a sugar?) in it? I've cut sugar and corn syrup in every way I can (and still keep things organic, because that is more important to me---for instance my yogurt has "organic cane juice"--aka a sugar) but this milk thing is really getting to me.

Any thoughts or suggestions? I don't know if I have lost anything yet, but my clothes don't seem to be getting any tighter....lol...but they're not getting any smaller either.

Hi KneelforAnne!
Try 5-6 small meals increasing your protein intake. It should be 1g per 1lb body weight so if you weigh 120lbs you'll take in 120grams of protein. This is especially crucial if you're working on muscle work. Do the muscle work every other day, give your muscles a chance to build as they recuperate.
If you feel like you need more exercise than you probably should add on. If you don't like the eliptical find something you do like. Trust me, it won't last long if you hate it/that will just frustrate you. Do you like the treadmill? Stationary bike? Do 100 jumping jacks, 25 pushups, burpies (aka up downs)
http://video.google.com/videosearch?hl=en&q=burpies&oq=&um=1&ie=UTF-8&ei=-jNoS7ClHIPR8QbX4enBBw&sa=X&oi=video_result_group&ct=title&resnum=1&ved=0CBoQqwQwAA#

Increase the weights in your muscle class.

I know it's hard to get motivated so I applaud you for joining the YWCA! Now that you're paying for a membership, that should encourage you to use their facilities.

As for the milk addiction, I'd say that's your body craving extra calories but not getting w/skim milk so it's quite possible it's the sugar. Try 1% milk or lowfat milk if you can or try eating more chicken/or fish

Personally I love skim milk too.

Good luck & keep us posted!!

I haven't been doing the things that I think that I should be doing in order to continue to lose weight. Oddly, when I weighed myself this afternoon, I actually had lost a lb or so. So I'm not gonna worry about it. Just keep on keepin on.

Being away from all the fattening food they serve is probably helping you, Lin. You're also probably working out more than you realize just doing the daily care for Granny! You're not running up/down steps but I'm sure you're moving alot 'cuz her lazy a$$ daughter surely isn't!!

My ultimate goal is to get down to 165 lbs, which is probably still too heavy. I have smaller goals in between. I've met one of them: to get below 250. My next goal is 234, then 210. These goals are 1 lb less than previous weights I've attained. 211 is the least that I have weighed since I took that medication that caused the weight gain.

I walk for 30-60 min 5 days/week, some light weight for about 20-30 min 2-3 days/week... some Wii fit to switch stuff out. I am heavy enough to where my joints hurt too much to do anything high impact. I guess part of really making sure that I eat 1500 calories per day is see if its my calorie intake or if it might be something medical. Been having problem with weight gain and food sensitivities after I quit smoking (2 years ago). I took the initial weight gain as just normal increased eating to fill the oral fixation from quitting smoking, but after 40 lbs I thought it might be some Chantix side effect. Doctors say it has nothing to do with it and to just eat healthy and exercise... Well, one year later (and an additional 50 lbs). So now extreme calorie counting.

I am a meat freak, to the point of if its mooing, lets find the slaughterhouse. I feel a lot better after eating protein.

I am also a caffeine fiend. The only way I get it is diet MD. I have cut out to 10 oz a day now, with a 20oz bottle lasting me two days. There is chocolate as well, but I am trying my candy cut down to nil (ice cream is still around, just use the smaller salad bowls, not the mega-cup bowls that I use for cereal). I drink 2% milk because I cannot stand the skim and 1% at all.

I almost got my mp3 player suited up for my walking workout. Now if the weather will just behave...
