Making a change for the better...

I have recently opted to get on track and STAY on track with my fitness goal. I am so much a yoyo most of the time. I tend to crash diet and work out like a crazy person to get ready for a particular event but this time I plan to make the change and keep it. Lossing weight had always been my primary goal because who wants to gain weight...makes no sense! Well apparently I have been doing it all wrong and in order for me to render better results I must actually gain weight. I spoke with a personal trainer (something I had not done in my past) and she got me started and turned me on to this website. So here goes EVERYTHING!

    Welcome. I love this site. Did the personal trainer suggest a weight gain due to building muscle, which weighs more than fat? If so, you will be losing inches even if you don't see it in the pounds right away.

    Yea, that's what the trainer said. I'm scared to eat too much because if I don't work out then here comes that gut! I so hate the gut. lol
