I had my trainer this morning. She wants me to focus a lot more on my form than the weights themselves, which I know is the right thing to do, but is frustrating because I just want a hard workout. She''s not taking it easy on me by any means, but I never realized how difficult it is to engage my abs every single second!
I''m nervous that I''m reaching that stage of where I''m working so hard but not seeing results. I know my eating and drinking are still pretty bad, but it''s really hard when my sense of portions is so out of wack. I think of how little 3 ounces of meat is and I want to cry!

Matatora, you are such an inspiration, sounds like you are doing great. I went to the gym this morning and did 25 min arms and back and 25 minutes on the treadmill, then of course the 6 mile roundtrip bike ride.
I came home and made a frittata, but my week of south beach has been difficult. I broke down and had a cookie last night, truly they are my weakness. I have lost two pounds though on this new eating plan this week, even though i havent been perfect.

FountainFairFax I am sorry that you have not had the energy to hit the gym this week. But I from what you have told me you are doing really well on your diet which is awesome! I wish I had your inner will to try and keep myself from saying yes to every deep fried wonder that passed my eyes.
I am going to try and do a two day fast to jump start things again…but I am already craving all the yummy things that I can smell from the vendors here for the game. Argh! Mrs Flutter way to go with the two pound weight loss! Very Nice! Cookies sound like an excellent way to cheat…I am impressed that you ate a cookie, as in singular. It also sound like you are doing a ton with your weights!
AmandaPanda- I know how you feel about the form thing. Mine eventually made me stand on little half round things because it forces you to or you fall on your bum. It sounds like she is still working you though.
BuenaGirl- Have you been able to find a trainer yet?

Hi to all...
Sounds like everyone is doing what they can...and that is what you can be happy about...I went to the gym today as well. I had an appt. with my trainer scheduled for 10:30am, so I called my girlfriend to join me at the gym at 10am so she could work off stress she is having and I could get in some cardio b4 the training session. She didn''t make it in until after 3/4 of my training session was over, but that was fine. She came and did some treadmill and some weights, which is better than nothing. I focused on my upper abs, back and biceps and triceps today with the trainer and beefed up the reps. Felt really good and felt like I was moving forward with my workout.
I have had a hard week with my stomach, so my eating has been a little wacked. I plan to get back on track though as much as my tummy will physically permit. I have managed to stay away from pastas, white flour(mostly), and most sweets(my downfall, after margaritas)--so far.
Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Well even though I am a rotten girl I did resonably in my mind today. I went to the mall with Jamie and walked around and was good at the jewelry stores we went into. We had dinner at O''Charleys and I managed not to eat my weight in rolls...OH I adore warm breads...sooooo goooood. Afterwards we went for a 5 mile walk and I had my ankle weights on. All and all about an even day.
