    But what happens when one woman goes to the gym and she sees another one there that's wearing make up?

    What would you suggest they do at that point?

    I try complaining to people who are not her.

    No luck so far, but never give up, you know?

    To all the girls afraid of going to the gym because they are self conscious: Go there and kick *kitten*. You’re beautiful, be proud. Its your body, this is for you. Not for the people who are at the gym, not for anyone else, you. Focus on you. Who gives a **** what anyone else thinks, YOU are making YOURSELF better and that sure as hell beats all the people at home sitting on the couch.

    That's great that you're so supportive, but sometimes, it's lack of money that keeps us "girls" from going to the gym to and kicking @$$.

    Thank you for posting this! I have been one of those women afraid to be the one non perfect person at the gym. BUT I am done with that now and am joining! I am looking forward to BECOMING one of those wonderfully thin girls! So I appreciate the post...appreciate you for saying that! Have a great Monday!

    I was hoping things were better. Back in the day (meaning the '90s) I was the only woman in the weight room, first it was the Y, most women used the machines, but I wanted to try lifiting weights, it was a little intimidating at first, but the guys were really patient and taught me a lot, then I moved on to a Gold's Gym....surprisingly the same thing, not a lot of women lifting weights, but I think when they saw other women doing it, more and more started doing it, the last gym I belonged to was more of a community rec facility and a lot of times I working out with the high school boys sports teams, very surprised the girls' teams weren't in there working out with us.

    Yes, I have always have a hard time going to the gym. I have been going 3 days a week for 5 weeks now and I have only ventured to the weight machines once. I really need to get the buck over it and do it! I do notice that it is hard to wonder what everyone else thinks when I am kickin *kitten* at my workout, so keep it up girls!
