Hello,

I am 21 years old and for the second time have decided to lose weight. I have always been very skinny and wanted to gain weight, but I had my son when I was 18 and while I was pregnant gained 63 pounds. At first the weight came off right away without me doing anything, but then I not only didn't lose weight I started to gain it. Right now I weigh 133 and I am 5'3" tall. My body fat is 32%. I carry all of my weight in my lower body, but I also want toned arms. I hired a trainer last week, but she is not giving me enough. Last time I tried to lose weight I had a trainer friend make up a program for me to follow and I was very satified and challenged, but this trainer is saying that I only need to do 2 days of weights a half an hour each. I am not even sore after my work outs. I plan on changing trainers, but I need to find something else to do in the mean time. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Why don't you try an FT program? Also, how's your diet? You should fill out your profile and tell us more about your daily regimen...
