I can work out with people of all kinds at the gym. We share a common goal and share a common space. The only people I have a difficult time working out with are the loudly vocal and the WEIRD.
I go to the gym an average of 5 times a week. The staff knows me and I know the people who go fairly often. More often than not, I'm alone and have the gym to myself.
There is this one guy who has come once in the past. He irritated me. I call him "Weird stretching guy". He used the treadmill and the floor for the most bizarre stretches (poses) I have ever seen that lasted 20 minutes.
Today I was about 1/3 of the way through my work out when in walks "Weird stretching guy". I silently hoped I wouldn't have to witness another stretching session. Thankfully, this one was only five minutes and he started running on the treadmill.
There are three treadmills and a new mom was on the out left tread. and he was on the outer right tread. I had to get in the middle. It was then that he started running like Fred Flintstone and then singing!!!! I tried turning up my music a little, but to no avail, he was too loud and obnoxious. Then he started doing his bizarre poses while he was running!! I finished my time on the treadmill and put my sweatshirt on the Cybex to hold my place and I went to the bathroom to get away from him for a few minutes. I thought about leaving my bag and decided against that and took it with me.
When I came back to my relief and dismay he was gone and so was my sweatshirt. I looked out the window and saw him get into his truck with what looked like my sweatshirt! I dismissed it thinking that maybe he thought I left and turned it into the office.
I finished my workout and took the TV remote control to the office and asked them if someone brought my sweatshirt. No one had seen it. We found the maintenance guy and he didn't see it. Then we watched on the security cameras that "stretching guy" steal my sweatshirt, very nonchalantly. I couldn't believe it!
I had to walk home and it's 40 degrees here and I was in a t-shirt. One of the office ladies insisted I borrow her t-shirt so I wouldn't freeze to death. Another reason I don't like that dude. They are keeping their eyes out for him. I didn't have time to file a police report and I thought it was silly. That sweatshirt is 10 years old. Its still violating!

Wow, what an experience.....he will be back....
You are doing so great Shiloah. I read the articles below. I am also concerned with the set point, I keep going back to the same weight....so I was looking into changing the set point. Also, I have had the colon cleanse for 3 weeks.....my mother just sent the rest of my order (I had it sent to her to save me $62.00 in postage). She finally sent the Yeast Cleanse, it says to take six tables a day, is that correct? Also got the grapefruit seed extract...how many drops do I put in my water? Also the oregano oil...how much, it says eight drops a day? Thanks for your help, support etc.
LOL!!! Shi, that is HILARIOUS! I am cracking up!! Holy Moly some people are just plain odd!!!
LOL... so funny. My friend and I used to go to the gym every night and we totally had nicknames for all the people we'd see there and we knew which ones were nice and which ones were crazy or rude. I'm gonna really laugh if he shows up wearing it next time. Would you say something to him?
ROFL, yeah, its funny when I'm not having to stare at him! LOL
Barb, I'm very sorry to hear about your MIL. I hope your trip goes smoothly!
Yes, 6 a day on the yeast cleanse- 3 at a time. I add like 4 drops of the grapefruit seed extract to each glass of water. And the oregano oil I would split up because its strong! I worked up to 4 in two separate cups.
G/L!
Angie, if he were to show is stretching butt back up I would ask him why he took my sweatshirt. Then I would go to the office and tell them he was here! We got it on tape- no denying it!
