So, everyone I talk to gives me different advice and different perspectives on how/what I should be eating, how/what I should be doing for exercise, and it's all a bit confusing. I understand now why alot of people think it is just too much work to try to lose weight. Tracking food, trying to keep track of calories and fat, reading labels and serving sizes...whew! It's like a full time job doing all that LOL. Well, I'm doing my best to try to figure out what works for me. The food/eating part is the hardest. I'm working with a trainer on the exercise. Yes it's expensive, but I know me and I won't have the same commitment if I try to do it on my own. I'm only able to do the trainer thing for 3 months and I'm half way done. Problem is...I'm NOT losing weight or inches :( People say they can see it in my face, etc., that I'm losing, but the scale says differently and my clothes are not feeling any different. It's very frustrating and I feel I could easily give up. But for now, I continue to try. We'll see where the next 6 weeks take me.
