I went to the gym for the first time in my life and I wanted to celebrate with u guys!

Hi guys. I, female 23, started my weight loss journey last october at 398lb so im coming close to my 1 year anniversary. Ive lost 95lb so far and sit at 303lb. As the weight comes off, my workouts are becoming easier and easier so I wanted to challenge myself a bit. Ive noticed when things get easy and stagnant I get bored. I have a few cardio machines and weight equipment in my basement where I do my workouts. But things were getting boring and repetitive. I also wish I had a workout buddy but my whole fam is very obese and no one cares to join me.

I had always wished to join a gym but was too scared and intimidated by fit ppl. I didnt wanna be that obese girl in the middle of a bunch of hot gym junkies. Recently I started grad school and I have a gorgeous gym on campus with the most beautiful view of the sunrise, all for free!! So I mustered up the courage, found out when is the least crowded time to go, and hit the gym this morning at 8am. and I have to say; I WISH I HAD STARTED SOONER!!!! it was an amazing experience. The lady at the desk was so sweet and gave me a short tour so Im not a lost idiot lol. I held my head up and acted like I belonged in the gym even tho the first few minutes I was so lost and had no idea what to try. But after settling in and warming up on the elliptical, I was in the zone and I did amazing! So this is a little motivation for anyone who has the fear of the gym. GO! U will get used to it and dont give a crap about what ppl may think. Ur there to work on ur body just like they are. So I just wanted to make this post to celebrate an important step in my life! sorry for the long post lol
