Trust me, I don't like "committing" to gyms, but I know that if I don't spend the money, then I won't exercise. If I spend the money, I *will* get my money's worth! I'm that much of a cheapskate! I actually have decided not to join Curves. I remembered that my MIL bought a family plan at 24 Hr Fitness, and my dh is still part of her "family plan". So, I'm looking around for the best deals for them. They have a current only today online special, $24 to register, $24 per month, no contract. This is a good deal if you plan to go there for no more than 3 years. Once you hit 3 years, it's best to do one of their prepay plans because then you only have the yearly fee of between $49 and $159, depending on which kind of membership you have. I'm going out to ours today to see what it's like. If there are only "beautiful people" working out, then I won't go there. I don't like to be intimidated!

Nope, you're not. I have just been sick for the last year and am ready to jump into it with both feet. I know that I'll be slow at first, but just getting to it is my motivation!
