I always find this somewhat funny. A lot of people won't go to the gym because they are not fit, or overweight, etc... You know what.. .going to the gym is the perfect place if you are out of shape. Just happens that maybe the 89% percent of the people that go over there are in the same situation, trying to lose the pounds... you are not alone. Why people concern so much about what other people think? You know, if you go to the gym... then you are ahead of a lot of people that do nothing in order to improve themselves, or get fit, etc. Do it for yourself... Focus your attention in your goals... and if you are too self-conscious about it.. Join a 24-hour fitness or a place that opens 24x7.. That way you can go when it is not too crowded... so you don't have to worry too much about the snob people that is just looking around instead of working out.... and one more thing.. beauty comes from within...

"Don't worry about what other people are thinking, they usually don't"
You're being self conscious, but the gym isn't only for skinny people. Get a friend or someone to go with you. People will stare no matter how you look. If you're slim and sexy or overweight or average we all look at other people. Hit the gym! You'll feel better once you get back into a routine.

9 times out of 10, when you think people are looking... they aren't.
Nearly everyone who goes to the gym is focused on losing weight they've gained, improving their physique, and bettering their lifestyle, and you should be commended for trying to do the same. It doesn't matter how much you've gained since then, the important thing is that you are dealing with it now, and are ready to do something about it.
Good luck!

Ha ha ha! ok, right that's a sturdy splendor secret for you. the least confusing thank you to get fuller looking lips without doing any of the surgical treatment or cremes or funky lip-plumpers on the industry it to purchase your self a sturdy lip mixture.
