    Just tossing a thought out there...but maybe you should talk with the regular instructor and setup an agreement with her that when she has something going on...that you'll cover for her. Sounds like others really appreciated someone being in there and you might even get her to kick you a few bucks or convince the gym to discount your membership or something.

    This made me giggle.

    I walked with 2 children carrying a pillow case full of candy for 2 hours so I think I got some kind f workout in. What killed me were all the people driving house to house last night. It was gorgouis outside in south florida last night. My daughter started yelling to the kids hat they were cheating lol. I mean I can understand driving if you live in farm country where there is a big distance between houses but that wasnt the case. I remember my dad was always obease but he walked all 4 of us around for hours on halloween and about 75% of the families I saw were driving house to house. Atleast if your gonna eat the candy walk some of it off first

    Very true.

    GREAT outcome! I am sure your fellow spinners appreciated your initiative! We have a new spin room at the gym I go to...I have to admit, I'm a little intimidated- I've never taken a spin class before.

    I say go do it. You will love it.!

    I might be sneaky about it, and just test out the room when no one is there, just in case I flop out on the floor like a fish, after a few minutes! But I'm willing to give it a shot! Thanks!

    Well that would be fine with me but they have subs to fill in if the instructor cant make it. There was just no classes at all last night. Plus you have to go through a really expensive certification process which Im not ready to pay just yet. But I like your thinking.

    RIGHT ON, Brother! Man, I don't know you - but I am SO stinking proud of you right now. You did it for yourself, and didn't let someone else's lazy day get in your way. Don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with someone taking a day off. But you don't have to let it affect YOUR choices. Congrats!

    That's awesome!! The choices you made when a snag came into your plan show that you have changed for good and those 200lbs you have lost are goon forever! You could have simply left the gym, like i'm sure many would have, when your class was cancelled, could have even grabbed candy on the way out! But you didn't, you made the best of the situation and sounds like you had a good time doing it! I'm sure all those people in the class you lead were sure glad you were there to help them make a better decision and get that workout done. Congrats again!

    Thank You! It was quite awesome and they actually bragged about it in class today.

    Your life just seems to be a constant stream of edification... Are you sure you're real, not a fictional character? They could make a Mike Montana show, with a 30 min episode per rant!

    LOL all of them dont qualify as rants. However, many of them really make me think about life in general. Either way I am real and a TV show would be fun but Im not a great actor just me. It would have to be a reality tv show.

    Losing weight yourself is a big deal alone, but inspiring others to take that healthy road and essentially save lives is gargatuan!!! Well done. You inspire me daily!

    You just started a revolt against Clarisse... it's started by one person question the establishment, and then people follow and then the Queen is dethroned and a new King will rise!

    I for one do not tolerate such shenanigans and self motivation in the GYM kingdom, I hope she responds brutally and swiftly for questioning her wants to par-take in the enjoyment of the sweets offered by the Halloween gods.

    hahahaha
