Definitely get a second opinion. I had a registered dietitian come up with my meal plan and I'm 10# heavier than you. I maintain with 2800 calories. If you even wanted to gain some weight and added 500 calories to your requirements I don't think it could be near that much. See if you can figure out your exact BMR. Based on a not so accurate BMR calculator online it says you burn 1673 calories a day. Thats resting, so if you layed in bed all day and didn't move it would be 1673 (assuming its accurate). I don't think you burn an extra 2,800 calories a day even if you're working out daily.
To sum it up I would say your trainer is most likely an idiot. I wouldn't try learning your own workouts, just find a new trainer who is experienced. You can read all you want online but nothing substitutes a good trainer. It's like reading webmd instead of going to the doctor.
