Trainers? Someone that knows what their doing?

I am hopefully looking for a trainer in the ft worth, tx area.
I have lost 53 lbs with light exercise and diet. I count calories everyday.
I have joined a gym. And that was 2 weeks ago - now I am in a plateau. I haven't lost crap and honestly that is discouraging. As a chubby girl, we want to see the numbers fall. No matter how little.
So I'd like to talk to someone that really knows what they are doing and see what I can do differently.
I have about 45 to go. I have the will, dedication and determination.
Anyone? *crickets* anyone?

Plateaus happen. 2 weeks isn't that long. What are you doing at the gym? Many times increasing your exercise intensity will lend to retaining water for a little while.0

Hi
What are you doing in the gym? Weightlifting? Cardio? If you do more weightlifting that take time to activate your metabolism0 -

Strong first post.
Weightlifting does not "activate" your metabolism.0 -

I do cardio - approximately 1 hour on the arc trainer. Then I do some free weights then several machines that work out my kegs, arms, tummy etc....
It's just discouraging working so hard to hit a slump.0
