I've been going to the gym alot and I really like it, but I've heard that if you stop going to the gym - then you actually get flabby-er after you stop working out than you were before you even started. Is that true?

No, I don't think so. You only get flabbier if you eat more than you did before! You're always better off working out, because even if you do have to stop for a while, when you start back up it'll be easier for you to get back in shape. It's called 'muscle memory'. (That is, if you're lifting weights and not doing just cardio!)

If you go to the gym a lot and then stop you body doesn't go flabby right away. it takes a long time for a firm body to get to the flabby stage. Also if then go back to the gym your body will go back to firm much faster then someone who has never gone to the gym. I took a month off from the gym after the wedding and honeymoon to relax and regroup. I feel heavier but i have only gained two lbs. the reason i feel that way is because i am used to always going to the gym and feel healthier when i go also my body was much more tone a month ago. I go back to the gym on monday hopefully i will feel better then. Best of luck.
