Went to the gym for the first time today (not my first time ever, just my first time since I started trying to get fit).
First of all, I told my mother I would go with her three days per week. I have a habit of thinking things will always be different, so I agree to do things with her, and then I somehow end up in tears. I went on the treadmill next to her and she kept telling me to slow down b/c my heart rate was too high. It was slightly higher than my target heart rate zone (6 BPM higher), but I was not hurting and I didn't feel like I was overdoing it.
So then I got off the treadmill and tried to do the recumbent bike. The first one I got on, I managed to do it without looking dumb and then realized there was an out of order sign on it. I couldn't get the second one to adjust right (I am only 4'10" so the seat has to be all the way up), so I tried to do it the way it was set and I couldn't. So I tried to get off of it and my damn shoe got caught in the pedal and fell off. I felt so stupid and like everyone was probably thinking "look at that stupid fattie caught in the pedal!" Really, I don't think anyone was looking, but still...I felt dumb.
I'm not going to quit, but I am feeling pretty discouraged right now.
