Going to the Gym Then and Now

If you have ever been over weight and been to a public gym, this one is for you.

If you have never been over weight - YOU SUCK!    JK  seriously  JK

So, when I was younger and went to the gym to tone up - not to try and loose 70 pounds - it was easy to walk through the gym and not worry about anyone but myself cause I knew I belonged there as much as anybody else. When I would work out, I would catch a glimpse of myself in the mirrors and be pretty happy watching myself as I worked out because I looked good doing it (so I thought anyway).

Now a days... It is a long walk from the door to the locker room, I feel like people are watching me- judging me. "How did she let herself go like that?" I imagine them thinking. It's hard to be confident and keep my chin up when miss hottie is running on the treadmill in front of me, with her fake n' bake tan and perfect figure.

I am sure nobody notices me to even think anything about me, but being over weight is hard and being over weight and going to a public gym surrounded by hard bodies is even harder. I am a strong cookie though. I have a lot of character these days that I did not have when I was young and in-shape, so I plan to loose the weight and keep the character.
