Wow. That stinks.


But, yea! for DH for getting the gym memberships and HURRAY! to you for the 14 lbs.

It certainly doesn't diminish your hard work. Good job.

Sorry Leslie....That is crapp!
I understand the percentage thing but it doesn't help any does it?

Congrats to you for losing the weight and you will enjoy the benefits of the gym. I started myself just 2 and a bit weeks back. You get hooked very quickly.
Just a word of warning though...when you first join you may gain a few pounds whilst your body gets used to it. Apparently it holds water to dilute the lactic acid build up in the muscles. I gained 3lbs in two weeks...but you will already know that after reading my whining on the "Healthy challenge thread"

Good luck..let us know how you get on....and remember...it is going to make you so much more fit!
