So with all the anxiety I could muster I went in asked the 14 year old at the counter that I wanted to sign up so he called back to this other 15 years old to do the deed. As we walked up I see the look of oh crap in his face. I sign the wavers and he takes us around to show us the place this is the free weights and back here is the salt water pool here is the ladies work out space encase they are intimidated by the bigger guys (in my head I am thinking I care not about the guys it is the bitchy women I am freaked out about that are going to mock me later.) then this is the theater work out room where you can watch a movie in the dark and work out. then it is over to the desk to fill out paper work her has warmed up to the fat lady coming to join the gym and is way more pleasant than the start. They snap the photo and give me the key card and I am golden to work out. So off to the darkness of the theater to watch the prison football movie that is playing very appropriate I think to work out to I think. So in there this great idea becomes a problem when I can not see how to start to treadmill I am trying to walk on because it is dark. My resourceful husband after a few min finds his cell phone and shines it on there to see it than starts mine as well. perfect we are walking and watching. this is going well. After a little bit it is time to switch the bike proves too much for my knee and so I move on to the ball medicine and big exercise one this is where I finish my stuff. 45 min later we are good to go. So glad I went to do this I feel good it was well worth it not as bad as I thought this time anyway. I had my Hubby with me tomorrow morning and Tuesday when I have to meet with "Alison" to talk of my plan may be another story. sigh I am taking the win today and hoping tomorrow morning proves to be as good an experience.
