Gym Update

I posted just over a week ago about gym etiquette with cameras around. Taking advice from people on here has been very helpful. Anyway, officially down 25 pounds in a year, 5 pounds since I started back to the gym. Baby steps but I'm very happy.

Today I walked over to the free weights (busy area) and asked if I could cut in to hold a 5 lb. weight for just a second. People looked confused so I explained it's what I lost in the last 2 weeks. Also that I'm down 25 pounds total in the past year. I picked up a 5 lb. weight, smiled, and went to put it down. A young guy handed me a 20 lb. weight to add to it before I put it down. His words? Something like "Don't sell yourself short, you got this." It REALLY made my day. Thank you kind gym people!!
