This is the third day in a row. We are friends (not super close but we talk about everything and live in the area- ex co-workers). Anyway, we were talking about our weight loss goals, and decided that we should go to the local gym together and motivate each other to keep to our goals. I was beyond excited! I have just started losing weight and they have been working on it steady for a while (they have some health issues that make it difficult). I haven't been to a gym in many many years. I've been probably morbidly obese for most of my adult life.
We got our gym memberships on Saturday. That night they weren't feeling well and we didn't go. (Because of my size and being a total noob at working out, I'm uncomfortable going alone and it's a 24 hour gym so there isn't always someone there- just in case). Yesterday the weather wasn't perfect and it snowed, so we didn't go. But we talked all night about what we would do and how no matter what we're going today. Today comes and we both work til early afternoon. We spend all day talking about how excited we are and how we're going no matter what. We get out of work and have a couple things to do. I message asking if we can meet at a local spot so we only use one car to get there (small parking lot). They read and don't reply. I wait an hour and ask if we are going. Unread. I write an hour later asking if they're okay and it's unread. I pass their house on my way home (its on the main road before mine) and they're home.
I think this is just a vent. I feel so defeated and let down. I could have gotten a good start on learning the ropes and getting fit this February.. Should I just find a new gym partner at this rate? We wanted to work out together to hold each other accountable but I seem to be the only one who can make time for it, or make it a priority. I'm trying to put myself first, finally after all these years, and I'm scared that if I don't hop on this horse, I'm going to give up....
