My friend got me a guest pass to her gym, so we're meeting up to do a 60 minute step aerobics class tonight. It will be the first time I've worked out at a gym since WLS. I'm already having all kinds of "looking like a big, flabby fool in front of everyone" anxiety. I'll let you know how it goes. Hugs, Tracy

Tracy, Don't worry about what other are thinking about you I bet they feel some of the same feelings you are having. Well everything will work out don't worry. Lorraine

Thanks, Lorraine. You're so sweet! As soon as I walked into the gym and saw all of the buff guys lifting weights and rail thin girls running at a full-out sprint on the treadmills, I wanted to turn around and walk right back out. But my friend caught me before I could. Anyway, the step class went pretty well - I managed not to trip over my own feet, fall off of my step or otherwise embarrass myself. I was self-conscious about my armskin flapping but I don't think anyone was paying attention. It was a good class, but I still prefer working out in the privacy of my own basement. Hugs, Tracy

Tracy, So, how'd it go? I hope you found that you were probably in better shape than most of the women that were there! Lori

Well Hello there Ms. Lori I did make it back to the gym last night and I must say i enjoyed it. I got up this morning bright and early and did the treadmill for 30 min and will do it again tonight. Not sure if I will make it to the pool or not. Well thats all for now. Lorraine

Sounds great Lorraine!
