Hey guys,

So I am seriously confused, IV had two sessions with my trainer and while I try to ask him he just sort of says 'just eat this till I tell you otherwise" and I need to understand WHY I'm doing it! So it's not going very well.

Basically he has me on 2000 calories a day, 40/40/20 (I think) but because i don't understand and I despise whole eggs I'm only hitting 1500 and yesterday only 1100! (Bare with me before you yell, I'm trying...it's a huge adjustment!)

My first issue is I havnt eaten meat since I was a kid and hate it and find fish difficult..and while IV tried this week Its a huge struggle...any veggies out there who can help? Trainer says I need to persevere if I can.

Second..I'm 5'5, around 140-147 and have a lot of body fat. I don't understand how doing weights and eating 2000 calories a day are going to get me to the 120 pounds sculpted hottie I want to be! Basically...I'm scared of eating and gaining and just being bugger and because I don't understand the reasoning behind this plan I'm not committing to it.

Is this what I need to be doing for my goal? I know there will be mixed opinions but I'm coming from a cardio, 1200 calorie background and I'm scared. I need some understanding here. I want to be small and lean!

Thank you

Tell your trainer he needs to communicated with you and tell you WHY You are doing stuff, otherwise you should find a NEW trainer who respects you and has healthy communication with you. Seriously!

Thanks guys. Iv told him he needs to go through everything with me tomorrow before we train...even if it takes the whole session because I can't carry on without understanding. I'm sure il figure everything out but for now thanks for your replies.
