I need to lose weight, preferably quite quickly. I also need to have a documented training routine which will prove to the adoption panel that I have a healthy lifestyle. (See this thread for history.) It also turns out (following general blood testing regarding my PCOS) that I am in the early stages of type 2 diabetes. I haven't told my social worker yet, and it may be that when I do tell her they will decide not to bring us to panel at all, but in the meantime I might as well do what I can to get thin.
I'm in East London near Canary Wharf and Greenwich and I would love a personal recommendation if anyone has a trainer who they love dearly and would like to share. Otherwise hints and tips on how to pick the right one would be great, I don't even know where to start.
I really, really don't want a boot-camp style trainer as I react badly to bossy people and usually do the opposite or have a stand-up argument with them. I also don't want to join a gym, but I do have a gym and a swimming pool in the block of flats that I live in that we can use. What I really need is someone who is interesting/funny enough to distract me from the pain and boredom and who will tell me that I'm doing fantastically well and just a few more sit-ups/whatever to go. Experience of PCOS/diabetes would be a huge plus too.
TIA
