It took me a full year and a ton of hard work, but I lost 100 lbs. using a smaller gym close to my house. After I lost all of the weight, I felt more comfortable and less self-conscious joining a larger gym (with more people around). Enter Premier at Sawmill. One day when I was checking in (you have to check in at the front desk when you enter), the staff member who checked me in was apparently training another staff member. As I was walking up to the counter, the staff member turned to the trainee and said, "This is an example of a 3", then he turned back to me and checked me in. I thought this was a very odd thing to say, but didn't think much of it. Then, as I was leaving the gym, I overheard the same staff member say, "This is an example of a definite 9!". I looked to see who he was checking in and it was a VERY attractive young woman. Right then it struck me what he was doing. That's right, rating the women members! I know this sounds ridiculous, but the fact that I was rated a 3 by this jerk was enough to put me off course. All my feelings of insecurity came rushing back. I quit working out and didn't go to the gym for 5 months after that, but didn't say a word to the management and kept on paying my bill. I'm finally ready to get back to my healthy routine, but I'll be finding a more supportive gym to be doing it at.
