These threads piss me off.

We all have to start somewhere. Sure, most will quit and not come back, but some will. The fact that most of you are wanting people to fail so it doesn't effect you, is just wrong on so many levels.

Maybe, just maybe, if you took one of the new resolutioners under your wing and helped them, and motivated them, they would make the change. But instead these threads get posted, and new people come on here, read it and it gives them a reason to quit.

We were all beginners at one time..

Threads like this give them a reason to quit? You can't be serious. "I read a thread, so I better quit"

Dude, I've seen this routine happen about 18 times now. The gym will be busy right after new years and then thin out. Where I go, it lasts about a month-month and a half.

What I am saying is this: A new person joins this site, comes into the forums, finds this thread and others like it. Sees that a lot of people don't like the "newbies" and it scares them off. People are trying to lose weight, and are not happy with their body...it's obvious. Threads like this, looks they get from the gym, people talking about them behind their back at the gym, give them a reason to just say "*kitten* it" and quit.

I'm sorry that you can understand that, but it's the truth.

Mine's already crowded because I go to the park district and there aren't as many machines. It's going to be overwhelming. =(

You're kidding right? Looks they get from the gym? People talking behind their back at the gym? Do these people go to a Middle School or Jr High School gym? Seriously, this sounds like something that would offend a 12 year old, not an adult

I'm sorry for your paranoia, but people at the gym don't give a s*it.

Dude, In January the gym will be busy, by the end of February it won't be, and it's not becasue of anything you prviously stated. It's will power and people that joined as a part of a resolution and a "New Year's" deal they got on their membership. Not because they were ever serious about their membership.

I trained through college, I saw this every year. The money was good, but you could tell most of the clients that wouldn't be around long....and it was almost always in January. Sorry to mention it, I guess.

It's not paranoia at all. I hear it in the locker room every year I have been a resolutioner. The veterans, *****ing about the resolutioners and wishing they would just go away.

If your gym is not like that, congrats.

Don't even get me started on the COUNTLESS threads on here of people whining and *****ing about the new people..

Agreed! I am glad to see new people in the gym.
