Tired of Being Fat: Changing Gyms... maybe?

Planet Fitness is fine for my needs most of the time, but in a few months I'll be traveling, and cannot deal with the idea of being somewhere without gym access... and there are no PF there. Today Golds Gym was having an open house with reduced registration fee and 2 months free... AND, they have gyms where I am going... BUT, the owner is apparently a major asshole..

This actually bothers me a lot, as many of my friends are gay ;( so... I'm going to contact a local gym and see if they have any short term membership options available to travelers... but if not... I don't really see a way out... /sigh. I'm such a scum bag... my vanity is causing me to consider giving a jackass money... even if it's only for a few months... and that makes me sad, but... like I said, I need to be able to workout to avoid gaining too much during vacation... Ugh... what to do what to do :(

Welcome

First and foremost - this is not a 'pro-ed' blog, in that I do not (though in some posts it probably sounds as if I do) promote the idea that being EDed is a good thing. If you are here because you are not EDed but think it's a good idea live like you were for a while to lose weight, this blog is not for you. And for anyone who is visiting for the first time, please read this.

Now then, if you're still here... Please feel free to leave comments. I will read them all, and as long as they aren't inflammatory, they will stay on the blog. I'm looking for followers/supporters, and people to follow/support. And, I don't mind (though am not swayed by) the comments that bash what I do either... This is what I am, I don't expect everyone to understand it... and frankly, no one should be ok with it so haters, as long as you keep it intelligent, you're welcome too.

To look at specifically themed posts, click on the picture in the navigation bar on the top that has that theme written on it (i.e. if you want to see only thinspo posts, click on those beautiful shoes...)

If you have a question, feel free to post it in a comment if you like <3 BUT, I've made a FAQ which covers the most common question (only one so far!) so check it out first maybe, as I'll just direct you there :D

I can always run outside, or bring workout videos with me. It may take longer to achieve my daily goals that way, but at least I won't be spending money at an overpriced gym, or at one that is associated with a company that is run by a hateful S.O.B.!; July 13, 2011 at 12:07 PM
