I am a personal trainer: when my overweight clients ask me if they are fat, what should i say?

Posted by Weight Loss Master on July 29, 2011 · 28 Comments

I’ve in my early twenties, and i have been a personal trainer/dietitian for 4 years. Basically, my job is to help people lose weight. I know basically everything about work outs and food – i actually am currently working behind the set of “The biggest loser” and helping design the workouts and challenges to make sure the contestants lose as much weight as possible.

My only problem, is that a lot of my clients are insecure 17 or 18 year olds who always take out their problems on me and ask me if they are fat, or if they are ugly. How can i be professional, honest, blunt, and kind? Any tips?

And feel free to email me about weight loss, if you have any questions.
I love Jillian, she is a great friend of mine.

should i let my daughter (recovering from anorexia) watch ’10 things you need to know about losing weight’?

Posted by Weight Loss Master on July 26, 2011 · 13 Comments

It could have some useful real information about healthy eating…?
Or is this a mistake?
She would really like to watch it.

This is the programme description:

‘Medical journalist Michael Mosley looks at the latest scientific breakthroughs in slimming, testing out the tips himself in an effort to shed a couple of pounds. The programme investigates the benefits of eating soup, the brain’s response to skipping meals, how low-fat dairy products contribute to weight loss and the best foods to eat to stave off hunger pangs’

okay so its been about a month and a half and i have lost overall 21 inches from various parts of my body.

i have been eating 1200 calories a day.

2 hours of cardio.

my cardio machine is like a glider? im not sure. you put your feet on each of the things and it swishes back and forth. whats it called?
anywho.

i also strength train 3 times a week with 5 pound weights.

every now and then i throw in some lunges, squats, tricep dips and other leg and arm exercises.

i also drink lots of water.

by september i want to be nice and toned and look good.

my measurements are:

36-bust
31-waist
38-hips

i want to get them to:
bust- 32
waist-28 or 29
hips-34

what are some tips and tricks that could help me make this happen?

also. i have flabby arms how can i fix that?
and there is no flab on the outside of my legs, its nice and toned.
but on the inside its all flabby.
how can i lose a couple inches off each thigh
i dont have a fat belly or anything. its just my arms and legs.

i want to have lots of confidence for high school
