First let me say that I have been unemployed for almost a year, and while getting a couple days here and there thru a temp agency I haven't found something solid.
I am lucky that my father has offered to pay my gym membership until things settle. At $15 a month he said it's worth it to get my body into shape and be healthy. But I always find myself saying if only I had the money...
If only I had the money to buy the better things, the healthier things, would I be able to accomplish more? Would I have the right equipment and tools to get my body where it needs to be?
I don't usually like to focus on the negative but yesterday I got a call from Curves, I had filled out a survey and she told me about the great deal... $30 for 1 month, to come in and be apart of something great. As I jumped at the deal, I was excited that there was a place I could find support and other woman who were going thru what I am going thru. My gym is a lovely place, but not a very friendly place and with very limited motivation.
After I hun up I checked my bank account...I'm overdrawn and now actually am in the negative category. Stupid bills....had I just managed to put enough money away I'd be able to do this. I know I have no one else to blame but myself, but I really wanted to be apart of this group, I had heard such great things. And now I have to call tomorrow and tell them I can't. That I can't afford to get myself healthy and in shape?
Where did I go wrong?

I'm sorry, Diz. Have you considered trying to find someone in your area that could work out with you and maybe help keep you motivated? Some online fitness websites (I know Self.com does and I'm sure there are others) have forums where you can find women local to you who have similar goals and want fitness partners. I know it's not the same as being part of a group and having professionals there to help you along but it might be a good start.

Thank you Iridescent! I do have a friend who is coming to the gym with me now and I started walking in the mornings with my grandmother! It is so nice to have people to share this with :)
