What Were They Thinking?

Last month I joined the local YMCA with big plans of going daily to work out and swim and lose this weight I've gained lately. Gyms are traumatic places for me... Even back in high school I hated them enough to take my chances on getting expelled by skipping PE rather than undressing in front of the "pretty people" and running about making a jiggly fool of myself. So, after over a month of talking myself into going to the Y, last Monday I finally packed my gym bag and set my mind on going after work. I was very good on my diet all day. I got to the gym and worked out for over an hour (amazingly good for a lazy arse like me) and was feeling very pleased with myself... UNTIL... Walking out the door, I noticed a table with FREE chocolate cupcakes and kool-aid. Seems they were celebrating their anniversary. Did I walk past? No, heck no. It was 7:30 at night, I hadn't eaten since noon and that was diety food and I had worked really hard at the gym. Plus... who can turn down a free chocolate cupcake? Not me. I ate it in 2 seconds flat, then hated myself all the way home. Why did they thwart me like that? What a mean thing to do to all the pudgy women who, like me, have to cajole and beg themselves to go to the gym! And who were standing around the cupcake table eating seconds? SKINNY PEOPLE! Grrrrr! Have I been back to the gym since then? No... Hopefully it won't take another month to talk myself into going back.
