discourage setting in.....

So in a few days(Thursday) we have our first seminar and first weight in after the kick off party...it's been almost two weeks....So far I'm getting a little discouraged. All I have been doing is the bikes,the elliptical or the treadmill.....I feel like we were offered all of these things when we joined the Biggest Loser but so far we haven't seen or received any of them. I know that the weight loss is not something that can be promised that's up to me however what was promised to me is the following
-weekly team work out sessions
-a meal plan(so far i have gotten 1 day worth so seriously for three weeks I've been eating the same thing EVERY DAY)
-4 private training sessions(the trainer has not scheduled them yet)
i feel like my 150.00 that i paid to join the biggest loser has so far been a waste...i know the weight loss is worth it but if this is the program and it's not going to deliver the other items it promises then i think it's not worth it. I can go to the gym (and aside from last weekend) I've been in it almost every day and i can workout myself but isn't that why i signed up for biggest loser because i needed the extra help?

I hate to rant and rave but i really do feel a little let down by the program thus far.....
I have decided that I'm going to try the spin cycle class :) it looks super duper hard but i am confident that i can make it through.....the trainer for the class is an older man maybe in his 60's but he's tough and he is motivating... i like that....

I'm happy to report that even though i didn't watch what i ate last weekend(two parties for Rhyan) i only gained .8lbs.... which I'm sure i worked off with the 45 minutes of cardio i did tonight.
I'm taking tomorrow off to go and visit a dear friend who is in town with her youngest daughter seeing specialists at children's hospital for seizures. then it's back to the gym Wednesday and Thursday and then I'm taking the weekend off to go camping and hiking.....
so today when i stepped on the scale i was 230.8.... I'm happy to report that Nathan has also lost 4lbs...
Ok I'm off to surf the net and go to bed....

by the way i think the adjustments are working... i stopped taking my heart burn meds a week ago and yes i have a little heart burn but it's no where near has hot or painful as it use to be untreated... so i believe the adjustments are working :) YAY

  1. 3 weeks of the same food would make anyone crazy! I'd definitely do something about that! I'm sorry the program hasn't been delivering the way it is supposed to. Hopefully they get their act together soon!

    I joined Jillian Michaels online program a few days ago. I'm trying to eat the way she says to but it's hard... I have some pretty set habits! Ironically the hard thing so far is the meals... too much variety. I'm boring... while I don't want the same thing EVERY day... for breakfast and lunch I can go without much variety. Fast and easy is what I like. I guess I just need time to adjust. And a trip to the grocery store would probably make it easier too. You know... actually HAVING the right ingredients...

    You can do it... just keep going. That's the most important, and hardest part.
