I don't have a lot of sympathy for you considering my gym experience last night. I signed up for a 7 day free trial at a gym close to where I'm staying. Of course they want to show you everything the gym has to offer because they want you to sign up. So the gym dude is showing me around and we're in the men's change room. This is where things took a turn for the worse.
There was this person in the change room who must have been at least 400 pounds And not a roided up over muscled juice freak but 400+ pounds of obesity. And while it's nice that they are taking steps to get in better shape it does not excuse the fact that they are waddling around the change room post-shower buck naked. There is no excuse to at least not attempt to cover up a little bit with a towel or twenty.
While I only saw the backside of this individual, the horror of this sight has been seared into my mind and nothing I have tried has been able to get that vision of a saggy, wrinkled, rounded wall of creases out of my mind. After seeing this I quickly went around the corner to keep from seeing any more. I was tempted to tell them to cover up but since I could probably fit in at least one of its stomachs I decided keep quiet out of fear that it would eat me whole.
