Personally, I would save the money from the trainer and educate myself -- most of those guys don't know shit, as I've seen from watching them in my gym. Making some 200 pound girl do situps...fucking ridiculous. Unless you like spending money for the motivation.
This stuff isn't difficult, and all that's needed is some common sense and willpower. But if you're in a bad spot now, don't think you're going to see major results by the end of summer, except for lost money to a trainer. Like Choopa said earlier, slow and steady wins.

Ok sounds good, I hate diets
What I did when I hired my PT was to check out the hottest and fittest female trainer on the gym and said that she was the one to get me in shape.
This helps me get motivated to go to the gym and I know I will always do my best just because she is a hot girl!
She is really serious about me getting fit so I am always crawling from the gym.
But it feels just great anyway.
I was thinking I will need a personal trainer the first three months at least otherwise I will loose interest in two weeks just as usual.
Then when I start to get in shape maybe I can motivate myself to keep going on more than now?!
