First of all, I dunno what people drew from my first post, but I'm not GROSSLY overweight, as in obese. I'm just portly, you might say. I used to lift regularly in high school and got to benching 135, then said "ok I hit my goal" and proceeded to stop, get lazy, eat junkfood, get overweight, smoke cigarettes, and other unhealthy things. B'H I seem to be on a good path now, quiting porn, quiting smoking, going to the gym again, B'H. It's really exciting.
Anyway, seeing a personal trainer today so hopefully that will go well. I was in a "boot camp" class which was very good but I think I will drop out because too many women with no shame.
I did not follow the whole discussion, but would like to add 2 cents.
I want to tell you that I have to loose a lot of weight. I can't seem to do it now with excercise because I have arthritis here and there and will spare you the details, but I found that when I just walk or ride a bike for 30 to 60 minutes a day, average, my weight goes down.
There is so much that anyone can do without a gym, as far as that goes. All kinds of equipment that comes out less expensive than a gym, I think. Unless you are a student and have no room for a lot of equipment. But there is always room for some good effective equipment. Someone else mentioned something. There are really alternatives.
