Well, although I am already a member of a great gym that I never use, I have now joined another one.

With only two months left of my membership at Fernwood I was unsure as to whether I wanted to join again or not.
It is a fabulous gym, but I really don’t use the facilities properly, so $20 a week is a bit of a waste for me.

I have now joined Curves at a monthly rate of $49 that has a program I think will work better for me for the following reasons:
1) Half hour workouts- I hate that my workout at Fernwood is about 1 1/2 hours, I feel guilty spending that much time in a gym when I should be preparing lessons or doing more important work than improving my thighs.
2) It is cheaper and I’m paying for one facility- exercise and motivation.
3) It is a circular circuit- which means other ladies are involved- which means I’d feel embarrassed if I left before I’d completed my workout. At Fernwood, I could do 10 minutes of a workout and nobody would know!
4) It is closer to home, so it is easier to ‘swing by’ after work.

Oh- and I was weighed at the gym… lets make it 15 pounds… I underestimated how much weight I’d gained!
