I was so, so nervous my first time walking into a gym, I felt that everyone would turn and gawp and me and basically point and laugh. Obviously, none of this happened at all, the instructor was really friendly and everyone else just concentrated on what they were doing! In fact once you have been a few times you will notice other people coming in on their inductions looking like lost lambs and you will know what they are going through and just tend to get on with what you are doing!
Anyway, on my induction I was weighed and he took my height andblood pressure and I filled in a mini-medical thingy (smoker, medical history, injuries, etc). I had to walk a few minutes on the ttreadmill, also on the bike and the cross trainer. He showed me how to use all of the equipment.
For my first few sessions I wore cropped trackie bottoms and a T-shirt, now I am more in shape I wear yoga bottoms and a vest.
Well done on your weight loss so far, you should be really proud for making these huge steps, it took me ages to get the confidence and now I wonder why I didn't do it sooner x x x
