Continuing on from my other thread...

This is continuing on from this, it all links up...

http://training.fitness.com/nutriti...lost-2-body-fat-but-i-feel-bloated-42866.html

Here is the story... I copy and pasted it from my thingy on Yahoo answers. It is a few weeks old. But obviously still relevant

I am 23 years old, 155cm, 57kg. I have put on 3 kg over the past 6 months but it has been proven to be muscle and I have lost body fat.

I was bulimic and last year I asked my personal trainer at the time "A" to help me stop it. I has come to a point where I didn't want to throw up anymore and I was just plain sick of it. So "A" helped me and I stopped. What she did was get me to do more exercise. And lots of it. I look back at the diaries and I used to write that it felt like too much. But then I got used to it.

We ended up having a huge fight and I didn't talk to her for a long time. Then we talked again then I got a new PT because she didn't want to do early mornings anymore. Then that PT went away and I chose another one, a male one, "S", I think around Mayish

I felt like I was going to relapse so I told "S" about it and he got me to start keeping a diary of feelings which started to help. "S" said he had started to see signs of overtraining in me and wanted me to slow down. Me being stubborn, doesn't want to slow down lol.

So I thought, "If I want to find out if I am really OT, then I should talk to "A". "A" used to be bulimic. She also used to get me to train for long periods of time.

Anyhow last Friday I saw "A" at the gym and decided to talk to her about it. In this time these are some of the things she told me...

"You've put on weight. It looks like you've put on weight"
"Your upper body isn't as defined as it was when I was training you"
"S" doesn't know you the way I do and he won't be able to help you"

"S's" wife I see for my acne and I told her all this today during out massage session. I think she concluded that I don't like her husband's style of training, which is not true. I told her what "A" said and I don't think she believes what "A" said.

I told her she can tell "S" because I will tell him anyway the next time I see him. "A" does use negative reinforcement to help me and before it used to help, but now I am totally confused!

I told "S" about it yesterday. Would have told him sooner but I haven't had PT in a few weeks because of Boot Camp. But I am guessing his wife would have told him anyway. I don't know if he was offended or not but he didn't look happy. He said that "A", because of her army training and stuff, thinks you are not working hard enough unless you are throwing up from it. He has had clients come over to him from her and have said stuff like this.
 
wow! you are wound up tight. Like it!
anyhow- I would tell A and S they can kiss your A S S, do your own thing for a time, love yourself up some.

the last thing you tell peeps with dis-orders is body image put down. And a person who tortures themselves with disorders does not need pounded on verbally.

the story pissed me off actually

glad you are here

Eat more vegetables and stuff thru the day to stay full, the cal count is nominal. I also find a whole wheat pita very expansive in the tummy and it is low in cals.

I'm not sure abotu your weight and all that, conversion tables is not soemthing i feel liek looking up. Maybe you are super skinny and i am contributing to your demise.

Anyhow, when you eat with your man, talk more, and take smaller bites.

Let's see soem pictures of you.

What I don't get is that "A" had bulimia at one stage too - why would she say that stuff to me?

November 2008

Boot Camp last week. I am the one in the middle, the one with the sexy calves lol (I like my calves lol)

Last week at my niece's birthday

Before my run a couple of weeks ago

And a couple of weeks ago

In gym clothing, I look normal, I know that. And I like the pic from last year. But I don't like the rest
 
OK- cool. you are healthy!

whole wheat pita is a good tummy filler, carrots, brocolli, and other heavy fibered veggies will hold you over.

is that some strong man training stuff!!!!! nice!
nice to meet you
 
Sounds like big time drama. Can't help with that, but you look healthy.

Is 'S' going to drop the price? If not find another and tell 'A' no thanks. If she presses tell the truth that you don't care for her style.
 
Have you thought about making a fresh start with a PT who is not involved in this little circle of snidey comments?

Marek :)

No not really. I want to stick with "S" and very soon he will just be doing PT fom home so it won't be around the gym anymore
