Hey everyone! I've been trying to use just the app on and off for about 2 years. I always see peoples trackers on other sites, and figured i might as well try the community as well, particularly after reading another article about how having additional support can be such a big help!
Anyway, I've got a destination wedding to go to in 6 months, and i want to be able to be comfortable in a swimsuit. Unfortunately, i have a really hard time staying motivated, so I'm looking for some help with that, especially when it comes to going to the gym. I fully admit i am self conscious about my body size, and frankly I'm a little intimidated by those tiny skinny women who don't sweat always picking the elliptical next to mine (when I'm twice their size, red faced and sweating like a guy) when the entire row is empty. Why do they do that???
Anyone have any good suggestions on getting a gym buddy?

Keep sweating. If you're at the gym, and not sweating, then you're not working very hard….
Happy to travel along the road with you!0
