Any advice is great !! Thanks yall !!

Answer

No one has a right to judge you at the gym. You showed up and are doing good things for yourself. That being said, I know it's still intimidating trying to go. When I got pregnant earlier in the year I had to force myself to go. I only walked on the treadmill because I was so sick and I felt judged because I didn't even have a belly and that I was only walking, but I just had to remind myself that no one knows situations and most people don't care. It's the fact that you're doing something. I say take advantage of the free gym. Maybe you'll make some work out buddies. You'll get more comfortable the more often that you go.

Answer

As someone who’s always been a bigger girl the only advice I can give is to just go. 
I was worried about everyone watching me and judging me, but honestly no one paid any attention to me. If someone I knew came in they’d wave or say hey and that was that. 
And TBH I felt best in the gym.

Answer

Ignore everybody else, literally no one cares and theyre not watching.
