Don't be put off by the horror that is the treadmill...<br> <br> Try something different every time you go, and give yourself a goal - e.g. I have been trying each time to reduce my 1000 metre row time, and I keep a little record. Gives you something to work toward.<br> <br> And depending on your gym, check out some of the classes - most of them are pretty dull I find, but things like spinning and circuits are great. tag:secretdiaryofafemaledieter.blog.co.uk,2007-02-05:/2007/02/03/scales_schmales~1673935/#c2740066GilraenH2007-02-05T19:48:15+01:002007-02-05T19:48:15+01:00I have joined the gym now too.
