Sounds wonderful but never heard of them before. I wish someone around here was 19.95/month. I pay 30/month for the YMCA but they have childcare for you so it is worth it not to mention I can raise it 10 and my kids can join stuff and go swimming and fishing and stuff this summer. and get free swim lessons and stuff like that. I won't enroll them in the lessons but they could do it. And they get a discounted rate for all their other fun activities.
There are other overweight people there which is why I coudn't understand the comments, I mean even if this woman was 3 or 4 x the size of the biggest person there, bravo to her for being able to walk in there and walk or work out for 10 min even. Heck I can only make it 15 min on the treadmill some days but that is still a workout it will still benefit me. I say TO HECK WITH others, lets do what we want to do.
As for the clothes thing Mary, I 100 % agree with you THERE IS NOTHING THAT LOOKS GOOD for a plus size woman. I would LOVE to be a size 14 again even cuz there is so many more choices. I don't care if I still weigh over 200 lbs if I could fit into a size 14 I would be thrilled. I mean I wear 18-20 now (okay they are tight but still) so that doesn't really seem like a huge jump but.........it has proven difficult for me. MY ultimate goal is a size 10-12, no matter what my weight is. I wore size 10-12 when I was above my idea weight before so......the scales don't mean as much as that size does. I don't foresee my ever getting into a size below a 10 again due to my hips.....LOL 3 kids can do that I guess.
Angela, I agree with you about the dress size. I was shopping for a size 8 wedding dress 4 years ago. And technically I was 10-30 lbs overweight. According to the charts, I should be between 130-150 lbs, but I was about 160 back then. I know it will be hard to get to that after the

Oh here's a story from almost a year back.. just remembered the situation because I saw an identical car parked infront of work this morning..
