Oh, yeah, you were offended by thier "actions combined with what they wear". This horrible action that offends you so much, that you mention twice (points 2 and 4) is "standing". How offensive. How dare they stand in a gym. And "what they wear", You're offended by spandex as opposed to "regular clothes". But no, you're not offended by the sight of them, you just want them to change into clothes that cover them up more whenever they're in front of you.
Fantastic argument, I don't see how anyone could NOT be convinced by that one.
Do you work out naked and try to talk to everyone except fat people? That's the only explanation for why a rant about people always eyeing you and sparking up an ininvited conversation would need to be written.
do people really just sit and talk to you at the gym?
why would someone pay to not use it?
so strange.

i agree with the OP that going to the gym is a step in the right direction, but exercise alone isn't going to help you lose weight. going to BK afterwards is not a wise decision. the movie "supersize me" comes to mind. do the subsequent visits to the gym actually pay off? i'd doubt it.

Being fat myself, it does not really bother me at all that there's seriously overweight people at the gym. The fact that they are there means that they really want to change something about themselves, and if they flap their hands around, then thats probably still better then playing World of Warcraft for 14 hours straight at home.
As for obese chicks and spandex staring you down...who cares? Just ignore them, or if you wanna be cold but honest, tell them to get their sh*t in motion.
Or if you want a pair of those brand new 7800 GTX's...then you tell them 600$/hour and let it be done with.

I have a lot of respect for people that are seriously overweight and they are at the gym. I would be very self conscious being at the gym if I were really overweight. Any exercise at all really helps, even if they eat junk food after. (Logic is that they would eat junk food anyway, so they are getting exercise they normally wouldn't get.)

Exactly. I'm more fit than the average fit person and I also have a lot of respect for them because its better than nothing.
sonz needs to go back to man-whoring.
Maybe you should focus on yourself instead of the larger people working out at the gym. What's worse, a heavy-set person attempted to better themselves, or a guy to sleep with other men to afford a fvcking video card? :|
:thumbsup: for anyone motivated enough just to get to the gym, regardless of anything else.

Real reply? Heh, notfred already said what I wanted to say. That part of your post about how "at least they're trying" is just your justification to rant on fat people. Give me a break. :roll:
What would make a real reply? That I wish people who disagree with my opinion would die so I don't have to deal with them anymore? Yeah, sure. :thumbsup:
Dear Sonz70:
Please sign up for a remedial 6th grade English course at your local Elementary School so you can learn how to use words like "your", "you're", "than", "then", "their", "they're", and "there". Please do so ASAP.
