Hey Guys,

I am new to this forum. Over the past few years of not caring for our body, me and my girl friend has put on a lot of weight. we are clinically obese and are facing health problems.

The doctor suggested us to get a personal trainer. I am currently a member of the california fitness gym at velocity, novena..they do offer personal trainers but they are betond my budget... we really need help.. do i have any other options?

Please help us..

thank you

I dont see why you need a personal trainer. Thats not going to help you loose the weight. You need to start tracking what you eat and where and then find out where you can make the changes that you can live with.

Read some of the sticky threads. Regarding exercise, anything that gets your heart rate up is good, try going tramping, canoeing, cycling, fast walking, anything thats actually fun rather than drudgery. You will meet other similar people which will motivate you into doing it more and its cheap/free.

Diet however is 90% of weight loss, doing an hour a day exercise wont do diddly for you if you are still overeating.
