Embarrassed.

Say, as a slightly overweight girl, you go to the gym to try and lose it. And a lot of the people around you are more better, fitter and healthier. When you go to the gym to improve yourself, do people judge you? Like do they laugh or say discouraging things like “She can try, but she’ll fail” or would they be nice and encouraging like “if you put your mind to it, you can achieve anything”? Because, a lot of the time, I’m embarrassed to work out, if I do it at home, my siblings laugh and it ruins my confidence or inspiration. I want to go to the gym, I just want to know if it’s a supporting community so I can change and be who I want without feeling bad.
