I know! don't you wonder what your life would be like if it wasn't the boss of everything, me too, and it makes me anxious just thinking about all the things I could do. I did not finish college because of it and while there, I left daily -screwed outta there like the damn building was on firem to a huge sigh of relief the instant I was out of the room, hall, door, building, and in my car I was safe and sound.....

I don't know what you can tolerate, but I've only had success sticking to working out in gyms I felt comfortable in. I had the same thought as Robyn about maybe enlisting Ben to help if that would make it easier, or another trick I use is I think of someone who is NOT scared to make a fuss, and pretend I am them. I think what they would say/do, and I just act like them in the situation, to be more assertive. And hopefully find a gym that you are comfortable in, it's worth paying a little more. And it would be worth it to me even if there is a penalty to canceling the contract early - although they should not expect the whole 9 months with all those issues - I'd be willing to pay an extra month, or the undiscounted rate for 3 months..something like that. Good luck, keep us posted!!Cherihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16021424631132894016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5229402567297576792.post-46003406751323018552013-03-21T21:22:37.990+00:002013-03-21T21:22:37.990+00:00And Mari- you are beautiful Do not let your depre...And Mari- you are beautiful Do not let your depressed feelings take that from you. You really are. <br />Also, maybe ask Ben to come with you to talk to someone at the gym and the issues......

I mean, I understand it, but I can't relate to how it feels. Maybe call and make an appointment with the female manager and explain your problems with her? Start with the lack of lockers; that is something she should be able to solve for you.
