Lydia Kleyn's Journal, 17 February 2010

Today's another vent day for me. I don't even know where to start today I have a thousand things running through my mind right now. Met with my trainer this morning, I am getting to know him better which helps so much your just able to trust him more.
I always hear two sides to nutrition and I mean to bring it up with my trainer next week he has told me to stay about 1500 calories a day, 1200 would definitely be on the low side, and then I see people who eat between 800-1000 calories a day. I just don't want to ruin my metabolism b/c Ive heard if your calorie intake is too low you metabolism will slow way down, do not want that to happen.
I need to overcome this FEAR I have had in me for so long, don't know where this fear is from or why it's there but I know I can push myself or my body way much harder than I do but it's hard to believe in yourself sometimes that you can actually do it and achieve something, I just don't want to be a failure. and I know if you fail you try try again until you succeed. I just dont want fear to hold me back in life and thats something that has to be learned.
on the plus side I had to people come up to me on the gym to day and noticed I had lost more weight, one of the ladies herself had lost 70lbs in the last year she looks AMAZING!!!! and she's going in a 25k talk about an inspiration to me.
the scales is moving this week, WAHOOO!!!!!

What I've been told about calorie intake from my trainer is that you can go lower in calories as long as you're eating small meals all day long. The smaller meals keep the metabolism working constantly. I'm always skeptical of all the information I get, though! Tough to know who/what to believe. Your body is definitely capable! You ran 5k in 31 minutes! I haven't even mustered up the courage to get on a treadmill. Haha! You can't be a failure at this point - you've already made so much progress. Keep on working hard, use this site + your trainer for motivation and direction, and keep that scale moving! :)
