Ok, I need input. Wedding Date 12/04/04. I want to lose about 30 lbs by then. I am not going crazy. I am doing weight watchers and have been losing 1/2 to 1 lb a week. I need to ad excercise.
Gotham Fitness in New Hyde Park is having a special for Valentine's Day. 2 people for 1 year for $650. Fiance wants us to join.
1) Is this a good deal?
2) I don't know if I'll go regularly, of course I have every good intention but need some motivation and discipline.
...I had been going to Curves - which I loved, but my hours at work changed and I am not able to make it there before they close anymore.
I am realistic so I ordered my dress in the size I am now and made sure there was a cap on alterations.
Should I join the gym? Anyone have advice on how to get myself there regulary?
Thanks

IMO, it is not financially worth it, if you are not going to go on a regular basis. If you can make the time, then go for it. Good luck!

It's all about whether you're gonna go. I personally know I'm not, so I got a weight machine and an elliptical trainer so that I work out first thing in the mornings. For $650 you can get a Crossbow machine for weight training and you can always work out with tapes. It's all about your motivation.

That is a good price though, and if you FH is into it, maybe you'll be more likely to go.
I joined a gym last yaer & only went for a few moths in the spring, and I have realized that i'm never gonna be motivated to go back, so I have to find soemthign else to do. I don't have the space for excercise equipment other than dumbells.

I think that if both of you can motivate each other, it's a great idea. It is a good price for the year. I go after work. Sometimes it's tough to get there, but I force myself. I put my headphones on and just go. I actually enjoy going now cause it's the only time that I really have to myself. Just think about it realistically if you can work it into your schedule, and if so, then I say go for it!

Re: To Gym or not to Gym
My FI got me a gym membership for my birthday last month... I always said I would go.. really wanted to go.. but hated going by myself.. actually I didnt go very often. Now my MOH and best friend joined with me.. and literally we go 6 times a week together.. we like to go early in the morning but sometimes our schedules dont match so we go late or sometimes go on our own... its great to have someone to motivate you.. I am usually so lazy and really thought I would never ever go. Now with my friend ( plus having to go dress shopping) has really motivated and I look forward to it every day!! Good luck in whatever you do - I think is a pretty good deal $$ wise.
